Jerry Brown Has a Big Plan to Balance California's Budget? What is it? It's a Secret!

The San Francisco Gate is reporting Jerry Brown has a three-ring binder containing ideas on how he will balance the budget if elected Governor of California. Of course, its all secret and Californians have to elect him to find out what is in it. This sounds a lot like Nancy Pelosi's "we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it" Obamacare strategy. We all know how that has worked out in the minds of voters.

When the state attorney general and Democratic gubernatorial nominee recently visited The Chronicle's editorial board, he brought with him a large three-ring binder with his ideas on how to bring state spending back into the black. But he wouldn't tell us what was in the book.

I asked him what he, as governor, would do that state employee labor unions, which are spending millions to get him elected, won't like. He answered, "Well, I'm certainly not going to tell you now." (emphasis mine) Read more here.

With the current level of voter discontent, the "Trust Me" strategy is likely to as popular with voters as root canal without anesthetic.
