Who cares ,Willie Brown just like B Clinton.these are the kind of Democrats that sunk the Dem party with all the caressing of the Big industries.How is the deregulation of the financial industry working out for us.Remember,Bclinton was the guy who made that decision.Brown just like Clinton had the industries run his operation.

Good old Willie knows where most of the Demo bodies are buried in the Golden State, because had a hand in burying most of them. It’s one thing to be a survivor or a pragmatist, but he is and has always been and insider and a back-room dealer of the worst stripe. With friends like this in California, Obama does not need any enemies. Too bad this seems to paint him like some sort of respected elder statesman.
