On the other end of a week's worth of gubernatorial debates and town halls, we're taking a look at all the ways that Xavier Becerra--the presumed frontrunner in the California governor's race--has shot himself in the foot.

From his former chief of staff's troubles in court, to his ties with Chevron, all the way to his former White House colleagues' bemusement that a dolt like him might end up in the largest corner office in Sacramento... Becerra's looking like the fool who might just surprise us all.
