Actually I'm surprised they stood up for the National Anthem and cheered the flyover before the World Series tonight.
Originally Posted By alexbook Actually, California has had a lot of Republican governors, including 3 of our last 4, and 6 of our last 9. It's easy to look at San Francisco and say that California is liberal, but California is also Fresno and San Diego.

To me, there are such huge ideological differences between Whitman and Brown that questions about attack ads or business versus government experience seem pretty trivial.

Yeah, seriously...it's obviously somebody who is "outside looking in" at California and doesn't realize that it's a big state with LOTS of Republican areas. It's the same for New York. Outside of the city, you'll find a lot of the state is red...

Originally Posted By skinnerbox <<Not San Francisco which is what I'm referring to.>> So you know San Francisco? How well do you know San Francisco, DAR? I've lived here for over 20 years. I'm currently living near the ballpark. I've been a charter seat and season ticket holder since "Pac Bell Park" opened over ten years ago. Even have a commemorative brick in Willie Mays Plaza out front. Trust me, DAR... I know Giants fans. I'm one of them. We are a patriotic bunch. We always stand and remove our caps for the National Anthem. And we always cheer wildly for the flyovers. So take your narrow-minded Republican stereotypical view of San Franciscans and stick it where the sun don't shine. Hopefully it will slow you down in pulling this crap out of your butt.
