I know next to nothing about this primary, but I'm vaguely aware that Newsom was purported to be a fiscal conservative.

Can someone break down the primary race and Newsom's positions to me? Answers much appreciated.

It's no secret that Newsom has lurched leftward for his gubernatorial campaign on issues like single payer and the bullet train. He earned a reputation as a somewhat pro-business Democrat as Mayor of San Francisco, although "fiscal conservative" is a stretch. I think it's fair to say that Newsom governed to the right of Villaraigosa, but is running to the left of him.

Here are my new campaign slogans for the major Democratic candidates:
  • Eastin: "Socialism now!!!"
  • Newsom: "Uh, I want socialism now too! What do you mean 'pro-business Democrat'? I'm one of you now, comrade! Bernie Sanders is cool now, right? Love me!"
  • Chiang: "Socialism eventually! Once I figure out how to work it into my complicated budgetary schemes that avoid any public pension cuts and include lucrative contracts granted to my campaign donors."
  • Villaraigosa: "Socialism maybe! Wanna buy some Herbalife?"
  • Renteria: "i am new and what is this"

Lol!
