Sources Point to Brown’s Wife As Voice Heard Calling Whitman A “Whore”

People with knowledge of what happened inside the room say the voice heard calling Meg Whitman a “whore” is none other than Jerry Brown’s wife.

The slur was part of a voicemail revealed on Thursday, wherein Jerry Brown called a Los Angeles police union seeking support. Brown evidently thought he had hung up, but the recording continued and an impromptu campaign strategy session ensued.

During the conversation someone called Republican gubernatorial candidate Meg Whitman a “whore,” for allegedly cutting a deal with the police union in exchange for their endorsement.

The Brown campaign is making no official comment on the matter, however people with knowledge of what went on in the room tell Fox News that the voice heard on tape calling Meg Whitman a “whore” is Jerry Brown’s wife, Anne Gust Brown.

“The person who said that word is someone who can’t be fired… Jerry’s wife can’t be fired.” said the source, who spoke on condition of anonymity.

Many people who have heard the tape think one of the voices uttering the slur is actually Jerry Brown, which will lead some to conclude that the Brown campaign is attempting to insulate the candidate by fingering the only person within the camp who could take the blame without being fired, the candidate’s spouse.

Who else, after all, could be publicly forgiven for causing such a huge distraction in the final days of one of the most expensive and interesting races in the entire 2010 midterm election?

The story drove the Brown campaign underground on Saturday.
