Gavin Newsom taunted rival Jerry Brown on Saturday by framing the Democratic race for governor as a choice between a "sprint into the future" with the San Francisco mayor or "a stroll down memory lane" with a man who held the job in the 1970s.
Newsom avoided mentioning Brown's name in remarks to several thousand Democrats at a state party convention. But it was lost on no one that the target of his jabs was the 71-year-old attorney general who hopes to recapture the job of governor that he first won in 1974.
