Brown rips Whitman's Spanish-language ad blitz

One day after a poll showed Republican gubernatorial candidate Meg Whitman doing well with Latino voters, Democrat Jerry Brown shared a podium in Los Angeles this afternoon with 14 Latino leaders, blasting her for what he called cynical and misleading advertising.

"The people aren't fooled," he said at a press conference behind the student union at California State University, Los Angeles.

Brown's supporters praised the former governor for his work for immigrants and farmworkers while in office.

"Jerry Brown broke bread with Cesar Chavez," U.S. Rep. Xavier Becerra said. "His opponent breaks bread with Pete Wilson."

1. I heard Brown interviewed on Hardball. I think he's going to bury Whitman

He's a much more strategic politician than Meg could ever hope to be. On Hardball he said he hasn't even run his first ad & Meg has spent over $100 million already...and they're about tied. He wouldn't say when he was going to hit the campaign full bore, but Tweety said he's betting on early August. He's going to be the next Gov of California! Of course I would love to ask him WHY he would ever want the job. He's got a mess there almost as bad as Obama did when he took office.
