Meg "Money Bags" Whitman in California
How can you spend more than a quarter million dollars a day and also claim to be fiscally conservative? Can someone explain that to me?

1. She will spend twice that amount once the primaries are over...
And she's up against Brown... who has yet to spend one red cent, I might add.

She's horrible! Her ads are all slams! Not one bit of information on what she plans on doing, just her smears of the other Pubbie.

Clue card for free, Meg: Cutie-pie, whimsical music and jaunty vocal tones spewing negativity are still negative... you can't hide ugly with cutie-pie.

2. I hate her ads.
Especially the broad generalizations about cutting the budget, taxes and fixing the schools. Exactly how are you going to do that? Sounds like the same happy talk BS from the last guy who bought that office.

4. Exactly...
Not one specific point, just broad statements of meaningless nothingness.

3. Best proposal so far
We'll agree to let her be governor if she'll stop running all those ads and put those Meg-abuck$ to use fixing California's litany of social ills.

5. It makes it very clear.
The way she chooses to spend money is irresponsible. And also not very smart. Her ham fisted approach to garnering votes is gaudy and tacky. If she were smart she would go up and down the state donating that money to schools, children hospitals, and senior care centers, etc. and could have gotten a lot more free publicity and good will from voters. As it stands now she just looks like a arrogant elitist who thinks she can buy anything including elections.
