After staying off the radar for months now, Jerry Brown has officially entered the California gubernatorial race. Ta-da. If elected to the position for a second time, Brown will, as SFist commenter MalcoveMagnesia pointed out, "will be older than Reagan was when he became President."

But does he stand a chance? Yes. Yes, he does. In addition to having arguably lackluster competition, Jerry Brown had his official (and controversial) gubernatorial portrait presented incomplete back in the 1970s. Why? So that he could return to finish the job.

You just can't argue with that kind of moonbeanian logic and whimsy.

Check out the big announcement at Jerry Brown's official site.
