Forget Meg Whitman -- is Jerry Brown ready for Lowell Darling?

We caught up this week with Lowell Darling, the conceptual artist challenging Attorney General Jerry Brown for the Democratic nomination for governor. (Thirty-two years ago, Darling also ran against the then-sitting governor, and both men have been busy since).

Darling told us he filed his paperwork with the Secretary of State and is moving ahead, full throttle. He's even got some more press since we wrote about his run last month.

"Unless I screwed up it looks like it's going to happen," he said.

Of course, his competitor has sucked up most of the attention this week, since he finally threw this hat in the ring after months of refusing to officially commit.

Darling's reaction?:

"I guess he didn't take my competition seriously," he said of Brown.
