Whitman Dodges Debates -- Sign the petition!
Hi DUers,

As the state with the largest representation in Congress, I think what happens in California effects us all greatly.
Please consider signing this petition.

NYC_SKP

Dear Supporter - wanted to make sure you saw this. The petition has already gotten 3,000 people in less than a day. Please sign the petition and share it with your friends. Tell Meg Whitman to join Jerry and Steve Poizner in having a real debate about the issues -- California deserves more than just fancy TV ads. Let's get to 10,000 signatures and really put the pressure on Meg!

Thanks,
Anne

I think it would be more effective
if the televised debate had an empty podium w/ her name on it w/ Brown & Poizner standing behind theirs.

4. I just signed it, what a coward. Her ads out here in California are directed against
the less fortunate. I certainly hope those of us in California turn out in large numbers and vote for Brown

I just signed the petition

5. Thanks. She is slick, and she is very well funded.
I don't want to have to leave the state, but if we don't elect Jerry Brown I'll be looking at Costa Rica.

Or Hawaii!

8. Thank you.
Interestingly, both "effect" and "affect" may be used as nouns or as verbs.

A person or movement might, for example, effect significant change.

Alternatively, a student might suffer emotional distress and exhibit a concerning "affect".

In this case I should have written "affect".

:thumbsup:

PS, sign the petition!

9. typical charmless CEO type, cant stand to talk to the peons.
At least Poizner has voted consistently in the past and has even served in a couple of government positions. That site makes me happier to be able to vote again for Jerry Brown.
