Honestly, I wanted to break ranks on this one. I wanted to support someone who would try and break the stranglehold that public sector unions have on California politics, and with the bulk of Brown’s funds coming from those unions…I’m not optimistic that he’s the one.<\/p>\n
And if eMeg had been…well, half<\/b> the candidate that Chris Christie was in New Jersey (…rimshot!<\/i>) I’d have been doorknocking for her.<\/p>\n
But you know what? You need to be able to govern<\/i> to be governor. And that starts with a basic ability to communicate in public. And her flat inability to shove aside this idiotic charge about her domestic help is the nail in the coffin for her.<\/p>\n
It’s not the issue – the issue is (as I just said) idiotic. But can you imagine Christie confronted with this?<\/p>\n
“What? You’re asking me why after I paid my maid three times the minimum wage, checked her paperwork, paid taxes on her – and she turns out to have defrauded me – I’m the bad guy? Next question.”<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Sorry, Meg, but you must be this<\/b> tall to go on this ride…and you’re not.<\/p>\n
