You are absolutely right. He is a master at taking a public opinion and subverrting it behind the scenes, which is what he did with second amendment issues.

When Rose Bird was unceremoniously dumped Brown said that it wasn't because of her extreme anti death penalty views, it was because business interests campaigned against her. Jerry Brown like many other democrats feel that the state is benefitted by every company that leaves the state. It's his job to force them out.
