Jerry Brown has gotten pretty good at playing coy about the governor's race. Well, considering that this is going to be a very expensive race, it seems he's decided that raising money is more important than being coy:
Attorney General Jerry Brown said on Tuesday that he plans to launch an official exploratory committee that will allow him to begin raising money for the 2010 governor's race.
During a visit at Los Angeles City Hall where he met with City Council President Eric Garcetti, Brown said he plans to take the next step to begin raising the millions that will be necessary to be competitive.

"They are talking about spending $150 million," Brown said. "They will buy up all the airtime with that kind of money." (LA Daily News 9/22/09)
