blog-Politics and ElectionsNEW: Meg’s “management” styleThursday, July 29th, 2010 John Seiler: Meg's campaign boasts of her management prowess. But compare this. Here's how Meg ran eBay: She didn't go out and hire retired GM, Ford or GE managers. Instead, she hired young hotshots hungry to create the Internet future. And here's how she's run her gubernatorial campaign: S... Debates: Meg & Jerry should do 25Tuesday, July 27th, 2010 John Seiler: Meg Whitman is OK with three debates until the November election, Jerry wants 10. But what we should have is two debates every week. That would be about 25. My idea comes from the JFK-Goldwater debates of 1964.

Meg & Carly Sell OutThursday, July 22nd, 2010John Seiler: Meg and Carly might be rookies at politics, but they're fast learners. They're already selling out the positions they took to win the primaries. One of Meg's primary ads featured Gov. Pete Wilson calling her "tough as nails" on immigration, while blasting opponent Steve Poizner as... Lame Jerry ad vs. MegMonday, July 19th, 2010 By John Seiler: Jerry needs a new campaign team.

I think I’m a LatinoFriday, July 9th, 2010Anthony Pignataro: That's right, folks, it looks like I'm actually a Latino. I never knew this before today, but the evidence looks pretty solid. It comes straight from state Senator Gil Cedillo, D-Los Angeles, in the form of an e-mail he just sent on behalf of Jerry Brown's gubernatorial fundra... Expropriate PG&ETuesday, July 6th, 2010 By John Seiler: The Marxists have a saying, "Expropriate the expropriators." That's what we should do to PG&E. It's an expropriator. It wants to expropriate your job and mine. Because it has come out against Prop. 23, which would effectively repeal AB 32. AB 32, of course, is the jobs...
