Twitter Updates for 2010-03-17
- Favorite part of the day: @KQED_CapNotes tweet w/ CDP disavowing the @CalAccount debate guide. That'd mean they'd been proactive on #CAGov #
- My thoughts on political rope-a-dope: Do it and you end up damaged…Whitman's unheard of money is political equivalent of Foreman+Frazier. #
- Unsurprisingly, I was not invited! RT @xristoargyris: @Reelpolitik how was debate? #
- .@xristoargyris That said, it was less a debate & more a dance where @Whitman2010 & @StevePoizner took turns reciting from stump speeches. #
- At the urging of Chamber of Commerce & Big Oil, @Schwarzenegger will not sign bill to aid homeowners: http://bit.ly/doOFdF #

- Who's got ideas for drinking game during tonight's @Whitman2010 vs. @StevePoizner debate? #CAGov #
- Wonder if @JerryBrown2010 has someone working the spin room at the #CAGovGOPDebate .. #
- Republicans would have been better served by debate at their convention than by tonights streaming video #fail #
- Whitman must be ultimate quick study. Immigration expert after "most of a day" on the border. Knows education by spending a week in Florida. #
- @AndrewCPrice Having seen lot of Meg over recent weeks, basically nothing she's said tonight is extemporaneous. #totallyprogrammed in reply to AndrewCPrice #
- What Poizner's talking about right now sounds like Shock Doctrine. Create a crisis so people are desperate enough to really screw things up. #
- While @Whitman2010 & @StevePoizner were beating up @JerryBrown2010 at #CAGovGOPDebate others were all over him over Michael Jackson. #nowin #

- One thing I’d like to note after this horrible run in w/ @Whitman2010. Stana Ana PD units (yes, plural) were consumate professionals. #CAGov #
- @amyjane12 Nope. Because, unlike the @Whitman2010 goon squad, the Santa Ana PD respects individual liberties. #goodcop #megcop in reply to amyjane12 #

- @xristoargyris I see. Conversation will be moot by the time it’s over. Whitman campaign openly discussing a $150 million effort. Astounding! in reply to xristoargyris #
- @xristoargyris And I say ‘astounding’ having worked on the @GovernorDavis re-election campaign — which was in the $70 million ballpark! in reply to xristoargyris #
- Wish I was on the way to SXSQ today, but gad I’ll be here tomorrow for LA swearing in of Speaker Pèrez! #

- .@Whitman2010 team HAS to know police record calls that come in, right? I know they don’t TALK to the press, but they’ve at least WATCHED? #
- Wish I could confirm @TeamPoizner reports of FAKE @Whitman2010 Town Hall. Unfortunately I was thrown out, and cops called! #ohnoyoudidnt #

- While @Whitman2010 lives in tony areas of CA & CO, @JerryBrown2010 had wheels stolen off his car last year! http://bit.ly/cBXrdS #
- Also love @Whitman2010 dredging up Lehane vs. Kerry clip. Maybe Lehane’s going after eMeg because (like Kerry) she’s a Boston Brahmin? #tcot #
- @christianlee Source I had for names was ’09 year-end report. No doubt ranks have increased…Even in the @JerryBrown2010 camp! in reply to christianlee #
- @christianlee DM me any you know of. Hoping to make it fairly complete! Just added you, to get started. in reply to christianlee #
- @christianlee Also, I was surprised at the number of names I found via FPPC report…but…they were private accounts. Didn’t add them. in reply to christianlee #
Twitter Updates for 2010-03-07
- @amyjane12 I took off. Your boss turned the room really nasty about infiltrators… And I’d rather see MY kids than the ACORN kids. in reply to amyjane12 #
- Seeing Fiorina call out a tracker today reminds me of something learned watching Garry South. Principals should never engage opposing staff. #
- @amyjane12 Are you still down there? How was the Pimp’n'Ho party? CRA Playas Ball? in reply to amyjane12 #
- From the NYT yesteday… How @JerryBrown2010 Became ‘Governor Moonbeam’ (http://nyti.ms/ckbOUN) #
- @ebertchicago Has the academy ever honored a critic? I know there is the “other Oscars” ceremony, but how about in the “real” show? #
- @andysternberg or @mayhemstudios… Curious if @indieprinting is a Union shop? in reply to andysternberg #
- @mayhemstudios Absolutely! Looking at their site & impressed with their #green ethos…but non-Union is deal breaker for me. @andysternberg in reply to mayhemstudios #
Twitter Updates for 2010-03-06
- A week into the @JerryBrown2010 campaign…wonder if Hitler still feels the same about his candidacy: http://bit.ly/bnbiv6 #
- Wasn’t excited about being at the CRA convention until I found out the ACORN “prostitute” is speaking. Where’s her #Oscar? #
- #CASOS candidate Damon Dunn comparing @barackobama to Rodney King. Another candidate tried winning him over by noting “Compton” behind her. #
- Disagreement over #CRACONV rules. Sudden introduction of secret ballot in traditionally “stand up” voting. Who’s trying to hide & why? #
- @gagnier Still looking for panel participants? DM me. (Couldn’t DM you…not following.) #
- Sudden secret ballot for #CRAConv seems to have gone down soundly, but they’re counting heads. #
- Room lights up at #CRAConv for Chuck Devore on line: “Being right beats being rich every time!” Next big speaker… @Whitman2010 #
- Recounting #CRAConv “secret ballot” vote. More in favor now. They’d already approved credentials, then let in many more people. Mess. #
- Wonder which side stacked the room to get a secret ballot? Who’s got something to hide? #CRAConv #
- Was there a specific man she had in mind? RT @RoshniMichelle: “You can kill a man but you can’t kill an idea.†– Meg Whitman #
- Orly Taitz on now at #CRPConv… Running for Secretary of State. Apparently @CASOSvote is a protege of George Soros… #
- …and here comes the #Birther stuff. That took longer than expected. Also challenging Damon Dunn’s status to run for SOS. #CalConv #
- Delightful chat with @amyjane12 at #CRAConv! Much better than getting elbowed by part of @Whitman2010 entourage! Ridiculous. #
- @Pie_Spy Asking the same question of a bunch of people is kind of spammy. in reply to Pie_Spy #
- @Pie_Spy But to answer your spammy question, no. I’m not impressed with her. Not sure what you’re talking about on the Pelosi thing. in reply to Pie_Spy #
- At #CRAConv, woman down the row from me handed @Whitman2010′s husband a note. (more…) #
- @Pie_Spy Spam comment wasn’t about your content. It was about you sending the same question to one user after another. #
- @Pie_Spy Haven’t heard the ad. So I’ll reserve comment. I doubt her highly-paid handlers wouldn’t let her toss around “Nazi” stuff. in reply to Pie_Spy #
- @Pie_Spy Well, I’ll listen for it. If you find a link (she posts most of her radio ads to YouTube), send it this way. in reply to Pie_Spy #
- (…cont’d) Note to @Whitman2010′s husband read something like, “Why is she the only person here who’s had to speak from notes?” #CRAConv #
- My theory on why @Whitman2010 had to read her speech to #CRAConv: They banned TelePrompTers. #CAGOV #TCOT #p2 #
- @CarlyforCA Was sitting at the table next to you. Cool of you to lunch with the ‘kids’ sans-staffers. Was #DemonSheep on the menu? in reply to CarlyforCA #
- @TalktoTom using half of his time for Q&A. Devore did not. Will @CarlyforCA? #CRAConv #
- “Stop it before it’s passed” — @TalktoTom on repealing #HCR once it is passed. He’s also pro-choice and anti-Delta Smelt. #CRAConv #
- Rhetorical Question from @StevePoizner: “What’s wrong with @Whitman2010?” Answer from the #CRAConv attendee: “She’s a loser.” #pwn #cagov #
- @amyjane12 Worst part about being at Knotts is that Disneyland is just down the road. SO wish I was there… (I’m a bit of an addict.) in reply to amyjane12 #
- @amyjane12 Such a spoiled city girl! in reply to amyjane12 #
- @amyjane12 Where are you anyway? Listening to this thrilling by-laws scrap in the General Session? It’s the coolest! in reply to amyjane12 #
- Just had @FlashReport sneak up and question me… He caught me reading @HuffingtonPost. I think I’ve been made! #CRAConv #
- .@FlashReport says conservatism is Freedom, Free Enterprise, Faith & something else starting with ‘F’ — sounds like a terrible report card! #
- Young people in t-shirts are following @CarlyforCA… That worked well for @GavinNewsom and my old boss, Steve Westy. :( #CRAConv #
- Young people in t-shirts are following @CarlyforCA… That worked well for @GavinNewsom and my old boss, Steve Westly. :( #CRAConv #
- Connection issues. Sorry for the double-tweet on that last one. #
- Apparently @CarlyforCA lives in an abusive household. Says her husband would shoot her if she didn’t share his political beliefs. #CRAConv #
- .@CarlyforCA learned about conservatism from her father, who became a Republican after watching all the terrible things FDR did. #CRAConv #
- Hey @CarlyforCA…Know you’re new to political game, but before calling out the Boxer camp’s tracker read about George Allen campaign. #
- On that pointer for @CarlyforCA…Boxer doesn’t have tracker on you because she’s scared. It’s ’cause you say things out of step with CA. #
- .@Barbara_Boxer tracker is tossed from the room. Mocked by crowd at #CRAConv. If you’re in step with electorate, you don’t fear trackers. #
- @Pie_Spy Not nice to call names. #
- @Pie_Spy Oh I saw it. Doesn’t change the fact that you saw a tweet to a hashtag, from someone you didn’t know (more..) in reply to Pie_Spy #
- @Pie_Spy (…cont’d) figured I was a republican because of where I was, and tried to pick a fight. It’s obnoxious. in reply to Pie_Spy #
- @Pie_Spy If you got another complaint, that’s like 2 of 20 – certainly over what Constant Contact would cancel you over if this was email. in reply to Pie_Spy #
- @Pie_Spy If you really wanted to engage everyone tweeting about #CRAConv, just tweet to the hashtag and see if people engage. in reply to Pie_Spy #
- @Pie_Spy Instead of standing up in the crowd and making your point — regardless of veractiy — you were cornering stragers to argue. in reply to Pie_Spy #
- @Pie_Spy Despite our differences on Twitter tactics, I’m looking forward to hearing this ad. Doubt it says Nazi…but that make my day! in reply to Pie_Spy #
- @Pie_Spy Call me lazy if you want, but I’m out today LITERALLY taking elbows from @Whitman2010′s people. Fine with what I did for the team. in reply to Pie_Spy #
- @Pie_Spy Well, those people are CLEARLY misguided! in reply to Pie_Spy #
- @Pie_Spy I’ll find the link myself, now that I’m off the clock. You want me to ask those ‘handlers’ about it? They’re a few feet away! in reply to Pie_Spy #
- Just ran into a familar face, one of @GovernorDavis protective detail. Working today assigned to @StevePoizner. The CHP guys are THE BEST! #
- @Pie_Spy Don’t tell me what the media should do – I’m NOT a reporter. If she did call Speaker “Nazi,” the story will be everywhere shortly. in reply to Pie_Spy #
- @Rebecca_Barrett You read books? What planet are you from? in reply to Rebecca_Barrett #
- Listening to some women at #CRAConv tell GOP phone-tapper James O’Keefe how brave he was. #likewatergateonlydumber #
