San Fran mayor announces he's running for governor

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom has made it official—he's running to become California's next governor.
The 41-year-old mayor used the social networking sites Twitter and Facebook to announce on Tuesday that he was seeking the Democratic nomination to succeed Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Newsom could face 71-year-old Attorney General Jerry Brown and 64-year-old Lt. Gov. John Garamendi in next year's Democratic primary. Brown was governor from 1975 to 1983.

Other Democrats mentioned as possible contenders include 56-year-old Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and 75-year-old U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein.

No mention of any "R" running for Governor in Kalifornicate.   :whatever:

Gray Davis, new to the republican party, is the only one running on the 'R' side.   :innocent:

And sadly, stands no chance after RINO Arnie destroyed the few lingering remnants of the California GOP.

If we thought Cal was in the shitter, just wait till ANY of those Libtards win. :bs:

Garamendi would be the least destructive. I'm hoping a Rep comes out of somewhere that I could vote for, but I'm not holding my breath.

Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”

Isn't Newsom the idiot who just flippantly decided to start doing gay marriages before getting smacked down by the law?

Edit: Yep.  He sure was.  Asshole.  Imagine what he'd be like as governor.

California Land Prices Continue to Plummet.
Governor Newsom denies his policies are the reason a mass exodus of Californian refugees are leaving his state. "Look at the bright side, our carbon foot print is decreasing. Sure there were a lot of upset feelings when I signed over southern California to Mexican sovereignty. And the Re-eduation camps for Christians opposed to Gay marriage did prove unpopular. We were all saddened when Disney and Universal moved their parks out of state, but with $17 a gallon gas, no one is taking vacations anymore anyways...just like nature intended. But I do promise a brighter future under our new Chinese masters."

I can see the fags giving him the primary and costing him the general election on this one.
