Will California ever elect a Republican Governor?

[pikachu]

California's actually a state where I could one day see a third-party centrist type be able to win a state-wide election. If we get to the point where people are tired of the Democrat because of attrition/scandal/bad performance and the GOP brand continues to be pile of toxic waste, I could see a third-party or independent rich dude running on a Conservative Party of Canada-style platform (with local adjustments, e.g. oil) be able to win enough in the suburbs to break through to the top two and be competitive in the general.
