I heard Jane was on cnn saying it wasn't a smart move.
I'm sure Gov Brown knows what the sanders' think of him and couldn't care less.
ETA to change what was reported about jane sanders... she was Dissing Gov Brown.. and it was said that wasn't a "smart move" because he's @ 77%.
I guess not!

But in astonishingly short order, America's shrewdest elder statesmen blazed a best-worst way out of California's economic morass. With a stiff cocktail of budget cuts and hard-won new taxes, Brown has not only zeroed out the deficit, he's also begun paying down the debt. "Jerry Brown's leadership is a rebuttal to the failed policies of Republicans in Washington," says Neera Tanden, president of the Center for American Progress. "California is proving you can have sane tax systems, raise revenues, eliminate structural deficits and have economic growth."
Fed up with the state's own obstructionist Republicans, California voters have even given Brown a Democratic supermajority in the state legislature. As a result, the Golden State is now reasserting itself as a proving ground for the kind of bold ideas that Republicans have roadblocked in Washington including a cap-and-trade carbon market, high-speed rail and education-funding reform.
