Gavin Newsom is Back in L.A.

gavinlachamber.png San Francisco Mayor and gubernatorial candidate Gavin Newsom is once again back in Los Angeles on the campaign trail. Today he sits down with Los Angeles' business community at the L.A. Chamber of Commerce as part of their California Candidates Series. Newsom will discuss public and private-sector jobs and how they could revitalize the economy to the group who could offer a powerful endorsement later in the race. According to his campaign, Newsom "was a business-owner who created more than 1,000 jobs before entering public service." Newsom has been traveling around the state presenting a program called "Conversations About California's Future," which hit San Bernardino yesterday and will soon arrive in Long Beach, Orange County, and Riverside.

just another pretty talking head... haven't offer any real solution to fix our mess.

"any real solution to fix our mess"

Like that will EVER happen with the ballot initiative system still in place. And no candidate will ever run on a platform to end it. Regarding "our mess, " things will need to get a whole lot worse around here before they get better.

San Francisco is doing well. he is a very smart guy who has actually ran a business. He's doing a lot more than making a bitchy comment on a blog.

he definitely has some good ideas.
i think he could garner even more support
if he uglied up just a little.

a bit more blue collar makeover
than catalog model - you know
for the "outside of the bay area" vote.

doh! comment javascript implementation is wonky again.

talking about GN
not TV!

And where's Villaraigosa? Back in Iceland. Seriously.

He must realy like Bjork or something.

Bjork can do better than that!

He's actually very into Sigur Ros. He cries whenever he listens to "Hoppipolla".

Thought it felt a little more stuffy here.
