3. He's very pro business. I don't have a problem with the Dem party having

people like him in it, but I like it when dems who are more pro-worker rise to the top.

4. I'm hoping his Green opponent will run for Prez one day *g*

Newsom seems all right and I would definitely take him over a GOPer, but I'd still take Gonzalez over him.

5. Isn't he from a much more priveledged background than Clinton?

I don't know but he seems to definetly have a future and I think he correctly believes that in a decade or so liberals will have finally won the gay rights battle of the culture war just like every other major social issue and that he will be seen as a visionary. I assume he would have to run for a higher office before he ran for pres, although it's not an absolute neccessity. SF is one of the biggest cities in the country. I dunno. The most likely is either Diane Feinstein's senate seat or perhaps the governorship. You think he could beat Arnold or will he wait till the Governator's out of office?

If he did become president I think he and his wife would beat out JFK and Jackie on most presidential sex appeal.
