CALIFORNIA: Wall Street Crony Trails Registered Sex Offender in New Governor Poll

Sometimes in California they do recognize the difference between evil and real evil. Carla Marinucci at the San Francisco Chronicle has the details:

Republican gubernatorial candidate Neel Kashkari was already facing an uphill climb to unseat Gov. Jerry Brown this year, and now a new poll shows just how steep that hill is — he’s trailing a registered sex offender.

The private poll shows the one-time federal bailout czar [and former Goldman Sachs soldier] lagging behind not just Brown but also a field of Republicans that includes Glenn Champ, who was put on the state’s sex offender registry after he was convicted in 1993 of two counts of assault with intent to commit rape. Before his professed conversion to Christianity, Champ also killed a man while driving and was convicted of soliciting a prostitute.

How proud is Kashkari about his stint at Goldman Sachs? On his campaign web site, his "about me" page doesn't even mention that he worked at GS.
