It took a $900 million writedown on Skype in 2007, tacitly acknowledging it had overvalued the business

Only by 100%. No biggie.

And Meg wants to run California....

Actually, in California, only being off by 100% would put her miles ahead of the competition...

If you pull up a 5 year chart of screwbay you will see that Meg Whitman ran the stock price in the ground while she was CEO, and then continuing during the period after that when she was on the Board.

But if you had bought stock in ebay right after Meg left the Board and the company completely, you would have done well, as the stock has soared. So if elected, she should do a bang-up job of picking up where Ahh-nold left off and continue the great RINO tradition of running Kalifornia into the ground.
