Hollywood left has left Angelides

Nothing says reelect Schwarzenegger and good-bye Angelides like losing the support of the Hollywood left.

Steven Spielberg, Sherry Lansing, Danny DeVito, Rhea Perlman, James Cameron and Jeffrey Katzenberg are throwing their support to the governor.

Combine this with at best lukewarm support from the unions and gubernatorial candidate Phil Angelides is looking at a huge loss of traditional support with nothing coming up to replace it. Short of praying for a series of Schwarzenegger gaffes, Angelides should start considering options for the free time he’ll have starting November 8th and Democrats should start to look at 2010.

During the primary I learned that a moderate Democrat with $20 million can't beat the Democratic establishment in this state. Hopefully, in the general election, the Democratic establisment will learn that an extreme left candidate can't beat a moderate Republican.

I think that is exactly what you are going to learn:-)
