1. She's ugly too but I'm not sure either is the best point to attack her
On the other hand we've all see that stuff work when used by the other side so who knows...

2. She sat on the board of Goldman Sachs. Why don't they just use that?

4. Normally I like boring people in public positions
They get stuff done. Nerds are the best ones to have in government, but Whitman doesn't seem like she's fired up to solve any problems.

5. Notice how Whitman NEVER in her ads mentions that she's a republican - She makes it as if it's

just poor old "Meg" against the huge monster Jerry Brown & the democrats!

Republican is a bad word - the republicans much preferred to be called the GOP for the millions of ignorant voters.

6. What I don't understand:
Whitman's big promise is to cut the waste, the fat in government.

But, think of it, except for the four years that Gray Davis was governor, we have had only Republican governors for something like 20 of the past 24 years.

As a candidate, the Republicans predictably promised to cut the fat in government. Along comes the next Republican candidate for governor and "I'm going to cut the fat in government."

If three of the past four governors were Republicans, and if all of them promised to cut the fat in government when they were running -- how could there be any fat left to cut?

So, what fat is Meg Whitman planning to cut? The fat the last Republican governor (Schwarzenegger) promised to cut but didn't?

Do you understand what Meg Whitman is promising to cut? I really don't.

Someone should ask her to state specifically what fat Schwarzenegger left for her to cut, and how, if the last Republican couldn't cut that fat, she plans to do it.

35 George Deukmejian January 3, 1983 January 7, 1991 Republican
36 Pete Wilson January 7, 1991 January 4, 1999 Republican
37 Joseph Graham "Gray" Davis January 4, 1999 November 17, 2003 Democratic
38 Arnold Schwarzenegger November 17, 2003 Incumbent Republican
