Bleed The Freak

In a fair election, Newsome would absolutely stand a chance. He is big viewer of Fox News so he knows and understands arguments from the right, he is also a pretty good debater and good at memorizing facts/figures (because of his dyslexia).
The problem is two-fold:
- Republicans have effectively turned California in to a national parody, so they would manage to make the whole election a referendum on the State
- Americans don't know anything and lack curiousity, therefore they do not find facts/figures to be persuasive.
- their taxes
- companies that leave
- cost of living
Would Smoke his ass. And no amount of good stories would change it
