at least that’s what I hope.
We have a number of dems that could easily win…we also have a few that would get hammered. If Feinstein (who is “keeping her options open”), Jerry Brown (who’s all but in), or Steve Westly (who’s basically Whitman’s neighbor) is the nominee, we should be fine. Gavin Newsom, Lt. Gov. Garamendi, Villaraigosa…all could be problems.
It will take a monumental screw up (read: Phil Angelides) for dems to fail again. Also, Whitman will have a killer primary assuming Steve Poizner runs…
The high-tech community is a substantial block there and they have a lot of respect for Whitman.
The ones who don’t bow down to every billionaire on the block, that is.
Wow. Yep, that will dent her support a lot.
Despite mixed reactions among the high tech crowd, maybe Whitman, the former eBay exec, will indeed become the next governor.
California: use the “Buy Now” option!
with the rest of the party it will probably help. Against two other moderates, Poizner and Tom Campbell, that should help…
Even as Obama got more then 60% of the vote…how exactly does that hurt her?
But it might color the perception of her among high tech people, who otherwise might be inclined to support her monetarily and lend endorsements.
Here’s a list of prominent high tech businesspeople who took out an ad to oppose the measure. The “honorary co-chairs” of “Silicon Valley Leaders Say NO on Proposition 8” include CEOs, COOs, founders, or chairmen of Google, eBay, Yahoo, Cisco Systems, Adobe Systems, and Facebook:

If Whitman is a solid candidate, do they take her support of prop 8 out on her or do they keep the bridge in tact? I doubt that they burn a bridge with the possible future governor over a measure that passed…it wasn’t silicon valley ceos who protested so heavily when prop 8 passed…
But thanks for the explanation. I see where you’re coming from now.
Perhaps it can be thought of as there being more than one bridge: there are many bridges. Some people will be willing to let theirs burn, some won’t. There will be varying degrees of support or antagonism.
