The candidates were asked about Presient Obama’s job performance.

Jerry Brown said Obama is ‘coming to campaign with me and I’m very happy about that.’

Brown’s campaign said Obama would be in California to campaign with Brown next week.

Meg Whitman said she would stay away from Sarah Palin when she visits California later this week.

Whitman said she supported Mitt Romney and John McCain during the campaign, ignoring the fact that Palin was McCain’s running mate during the 2008 presidential election.
