Meg Whitman's secret weapon

Summary : Former Gov. Pete Wilson is the only politician to have beaten Jerry Brown in an election. In 1982, Wilson, then-San Diego mayor, trounced Brown, then California's bigfoot governor, in the race for U.S. Senate 51 to 45 percent. Now Wilson serves as Meg Whitman's campaign chairman. On Thursday, he told me not to believe polls that show Whitman losing by as much as double digits. Whitman, he says, has a real shot at beating Brown.

Opinion: I think if the numbers are showing Brown is winning then he will win. Pete Wilson would have to something spectacular to get Meg Whitman out of a double digit loss. He has beat Jerry Brown before but that does not mean he can do it again. Meg Whitman just needs to step up her game and not let others win this election for her.
