I had lunch with Tom Steyer today. Ask me anything.

[CoopersDad]

About 20 local Dems were invited to join Tom and his wife, Kat, for lunch at a restaurant in Santa Cruz.
It was delightful, and San Jose Assemblymember Ash Kalra dropped by.

I already intended to vote for him after watching debates and positions of major candidates.
Tom's position on housing, energy, education, and fair taxation were clearly articulated.
He answered my questions on housing and others' questions on energy costs, education, social justice, and other matters.

Becerra is polling better, but his failure to champion single-payer healthcare and his friendliness with Chevron turn me off.

2. No

3. I like Billionaires that have Democratic instincts.

I'd be OK if Steyer runs against a Republican for Cal Governor,

4. PG&E and Google are also spending millions attacking Steyer, which puts Becerra in the position of owing them.

5. why does he complain about PACS when he is in fact his own PAC. $200 mil he spends on ads coulda

7. Steyer is in over his head.

Should he win I think he'll be at best ineffective.
