Longtime political journalist Dan Morain joins us this week to chat about former Insurance Commissioner Steve Poizner's surprise late entry into the current race for Insurance Commissioner as an independent candidate. Will the multimillionaire former Commissioner be able to shake the curse that has befuddled GOP statewide office-seekers in California by shedding the party label? Or, will his rightward turn in the 2010 gubernatorial primary come back to haunt him? We talk about all that, Dan's brand new job at the indie journalism project, CALmatters, and more.
