Around Town in South County….

It has been an interesting week, to say the least!!! I spent that Saturday Night dropping by a Community Meet and Greet for the Capistrano Candidates. It is great that the grass root support is starting to build up in a major way. For those who have been driving around town, the signs have been springing up everywhere. It appears that the opposition seems to be silent. As the discourse continued, someone handed me an email from one of the current incumbents. It touted how they were “conservative” and “for reform”, while the current slate was “Pro-Union”. They seemed to forget that two of the key players have Union Support and that the focus had to be on the kids. It was still interesting reading, though.

Jerry Brown releases his first TV campaign ad

At Saturday’s OC Labor Day Celebration in Santa Ana Attorney General Jerry Brown complained; “More people have seen me in a Meg Whitman ad than have seen me in my ads.” But Brown promised the more than 1,000 labor union members, their families, and supporters, “we have the fire power to deliver the truth to the people of California.”

More than 1000 turn out for OC Labor Federation event to see Jerry Brown

“This campaign is about you, and your neighbors, and your friends. I don’t think you want to see an election that is all about who can buy the most ads,” Brown proclaimed. “It’s really about who cares the most about California; who understands California; and who can unite the very angry and disparate elements that currently make up our state. It’s about building the common base that brings strength to California.”
