Title: I heard my first 2010 ad today.

Meg Whitman (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6Ccq7y42t4).  They were standard Republican talking points (not surprising for a primary), so I was (also not surprisingly) somewhat less than impressed.

Anyway, looks like things are starting to heat up here.

I heard that one a few days ago.  Pretty standard fare.  I presume she's self-financing to have started so soon?

Radio Ads aren't expensive and CA GOP establishment candidates get automatic millions of dollars from Orange County, Inland Empire & Sacramento.  An $80k radio buy or whatever is inisignificant.

That ad isn't very good anyway, it's too obvious that she's reading and there isn't an audio hook to make it interesting.

I'm really looking forward to ads in the Oklahoma Gubernatorial Race which will likely be a nasty cat fight between Congresswoman Mary Fallin (R) and Lt. Governor Jari Askins (D).  Let's not forget that Askins will face a tough primary against popular Attorney General Drew Edmondson while Fallin is the likely winner of the GOP Primary.  Be assured that whoever wins the Democratic Primary will take Fallin really late into the night and possibly into the early morning, just like then State Sen. Brad Henry did to former Congressman Steve Largent (R) in 2002.  I expect a Democratic Governor to succeed Brad Henry.

I just want the old California back. Meg Whitman's new California includes her firing my boyfriend's mom, unless she took that comment back but didn't really mean it.
