Newsome's in the news today with an interview at ABC News, where he claims that "the time is right" to vote on another state gay marriage initiative. See the whole article, "California Gay Marriage Backers Poised to Try Again in 2010."
Actually, Newsom's a municipal law-breaker, as far as I'm concerned. His policy of marrying same-sex couples in San Francisco in 2004 was later overturned by the California Supreme Court.
Recall that Newsom toured Southern California in March, kicking off his gubernatorial campaign. The news reports at the time focused less on Newsome's politics than on his knowledge of the hairstyling gel, thus "firming up" his image as a political metrosexual, NTTAWWT:
Gavin Newsom may be running for governor of California, but "American Idol" host Ryan Seacrest had something else in mind during his Tuesday morning radio chat with the San Francisco mayor: "What is that product that you put in your slick, shiny hair?"Hey, that's cool! Keep talking about the hair gel, buddy!
"L'Oreal," Newsom responded. "And it's the Clean Gel. It's the Total Control Clean Gel, because they've got seven or eight products, and the other ones don't work."
"I'm talking to a metrosexual," Seacrest marveled.
So began the opening day of Newsom's weeklong effort to introduce himself to Southern Californians who know little about him, apart from his attempt to legalize same-sex marriage.
A divorced philandering ANSWER-backed gay rights activist and L'Oreal-combing soft-on-homicide open-borders San Francisco mayor!
What a campaign! Boy, he'll sweep the California heartland!

I hate to say this, because I have friends and family in California, but if the people there are stupid enough to vote for Gavin Newsome for governor, then they will richly deserve what will soon be coming there way.
I bet Pres. Obamanation is already planning to dispatch enough ACORN nuts to California to try and make it happen, too.

Bring it on, Gavin! If the economy is still in the tank in California in 2010, running on same-sex marriage should get him, oh maybe 30% of the vote. It shows how bad things are in California when this is the best the Dems have to run for governor. Either Steve Poizner or Meg Whitman should win because they will run on the economy and the fact that California is proof positive that we can not spend our way out of recession. Too bad Gov. Benedict Arnold did not get that memo!
If Newsome becomes gov, you can pretty must be assured that the feds will be bailing out Cali every year he's in office and decades beyond.
I've lived in California all of my life but would definitely move out of state if Gavin Newsom became our governor. Ugh, I shutter at the idea.
I can only hope our state isn't that crazy.
I did a little research, and it appears the Gavin "Gruesome" Newsom has about the same chance of being elected governor of California as I have.
LOL-Perhaps there is hope for you left-coasters yet.
