Jerry Brown Wants Attorney General Job

(Oakland, California) Jerry Brown has been described as a serial political candidate who, along the way, acquired the nickname "Governor Moonbeam." He's been a "college trustee, a secretary of state, a governor, a Senate candidate, a presidential hopeful, a spiritual scholar, a Democratic party official, a populist radio host and an urban mayor." All the while, he is considered to have mastered the art of flip-flopping on major issues, long before John Kerry made it commonplace.

A full resume for most people, but not Jerry Brown, now he wants to become the Attorney General of California. The current AG, Bill Lockyer, can't run for reelection because of term limits so Brown is starting his preparations for a campaign in 2006. He's raised over $1 million already.

Personally, I'd never support Jerry Brown for any public office since he leans way, way too left for my liking, but I do find him immensely entertaining as a candidate.
