Phil Trounstine handicaps the Republican primary

Phil Trounstine, co-publisher and co-editor of Calbuzz.com (and who covered politics in Silicon Valley for 20 years, was an editor for the San Jose Mercury News, and served as communications director to then-Gov. Gray Davis) had a conversation with us in November about the gubernatorial race.

Enjoy listening to his lively and thoughtful take on the 2010 campaign, including:


  • His analysis of the candidates' chances in the Republican primary, including a potential tactical error on Meg Whitman's part (despite her many millions of dollars);
  • A possible parallel to the 1998 Democratic primary for governor;
  • His description of where Jerry Brown really stands ("he's got history");
  • And much more, in eight minutes that go by really fast.
