I am very, very pleased to announce the launch of the website
GovernorPhil.com. Inspired by
Raising Kaine in Virginia, that helped elect
Tim Kaine governor of Virginia (and soon,
Jim Webb), and
Lamont blog which recently helped win the nomination for
Ned Lamont in the Connecticut Democratic primary.
GovernorPhil.com is another in a series of people powered grassroots websites. In this case put together by a dedicated group of blogosphere types, (aka: myself, Conan Newton, ex-director of Bands Against Bush, long time poster to dkos, mydd, and others, Brian Leubitz (aka: utbriancl) of Calitics, Jenifer Fernandez Ancona (aka: jra) of Power PAC, Dan Ancona (aka: da)of SpeakOutCalifornia.org, Frank D. Russo of The California Progress Report and many more.
Quite simply, this election is not just about the current California recall governor. Certainly that guy is odious, in the pocket of big business and the extreme right wing, all the while acting the part of a moderate. However, while pointing out the current govenor's lies, misdirections, and dangerous policis, this site is designing to be about helping present the vision and character of California's next Governor, Philip Nicholas Angelides. Or as we hope to call him soon. Governor Phil
More behind the cut.
