The guy the righties love to hate, billionaire financier Geroge soros just gave $1 million big ones for Prop 19. If the old adage, "Money talks, and bullshit walks", has any truth, its game over. And Moonbeam is leading over ebay. :D

George is our friend. :D That outa buy a little ad time for them. and yeah, go Gov. Moonbeam. :smokin: He's no cannabis advocate but he's gotta be better than Meg. When I lived out in Cali I remember he was always popular as Gov, that whole Moonbeam thing was always in good humor with effection. :rastasmoke:

Yes...absolutely there is hope!

Read this article (http://justsaynow.firedoglake.com/2010/10/22/internal-polls-prop-19-winning-56-41-anti-marijuana-stigma-could-be-throwing-off-other-polling/) to understand why the polls are mis-reading the voters...then go vote YES on Prop 19! :D

the polls :stoned: that I've seen on the news have him up by a bit, I think. I gotta believe all the dinero that meg has blown thru prolly has some effect. maybe the weirdo zeitguist has swung the other way in Cali. :jointsmile: but I think Brown has changed his persona a bit since the moonbeam days. I like the dude, I hope he wins.

Only in California. Im sure he's a nice guy but his numerous past public statements and positions kinda make him look like a nutjob with no clue how to run an effective economy.

It's hardly just California. New York, New Jersey and Illinois are all in the same boat as Cali...maybe even worse. And those are just the big States. Lots of deficit spending and unrealistic expectations of future revenues all over the place.

Welcome to working until you die... :wtf:
