It takes an hour to go from Mountain View to Downtown SJ. The same drive takes ~15 min with no traffic or about an hour in awful traffic.
The route from MV to SJ goes through no where. It parallels the sparsely populated Tasman for much of it, though it will go near the upcoming 49ers stadium.
It doesn't go to Valley Fair Mall or Santana Row, just about the only two places worth going in SJ.
It doesn't go to Santa Clara University or the Airport.
In total, it's the world's slowest train to nowhere for nobody.

I largely agree with this, it does go to the Santa Clara convention center which is nice. And some of the San Jose government facilities. But generally it does not go to places that a steady stream of people would want to go to.
