In Meg Whitman’s first TV commercial, set to begin airing statewide on Friday, the Republican candidate for governor tells viewers that “the state is in the worst shape that I’ve seen in the 30 years that I have lived in California.”
But although the former EBay chief first moved to California nearly 30 years ago, in 1981, she has not lived in the state continuously since then. For a period during the 1990s, after she left the Walt Disney Co., Whitman moved to Massachusetts with her husband, a brain surgeon who worked at Massachusetts General Hospital.
News reports have said she moved in 1992. The Whitman campaign declined to specify when she moved out of state. She returned in March 1998, taking the helm of EBay.

We went to the same High School. Although, she graduated before I did.
Talk about trying to find fault with minutia. This LA Times writer has entirely too much time on his hands.
She was born in '56 not '46 and she graduated from my HS on LI a couple of years ahead of me.
Babs Boxer is a New York-born carpetbagger herself. Hillary Clinton had far less time in New York than Whitman has in California.
And considering that the votes U.S. Senators make affects the whole country and not just their states, I'm not sure it is even a particularly relevant issue.
Yawn - another Vichy Republican. She needs to be thoroughly tarred with that brush.
I wouldn’t vote for her simply because of how horrible the Ebay/Paypal relationship works.
I can't stand her, but this is lame, You live somewhere for 30 years, you don't always mention a six year gap for work or military service, especially when you returned 12 years ago.
Meg Whitman: Romney handpicked me and "I'm A Huge Fan Of Van Jones"
He’s not trashing Whitman per se. He is questioning why CA is always electing RINO and/or liberals.
If her name was Hillary, she would say : “Actually, I have always been a Padres fan, even though I was for the Red Sox”.
Geeesh.. Is it a hate crime to post from the LA Times? I post as I will.
Is freedom of expression illegal too?
If you want to embrace the current idiocy and offerings at the highest levels of the moderate CA GoP and GoP as well, be my guest.
You can just skip my threads if you don’t like it. How’s that? Fair enough?
Thanks for speaking up but some here are so rabid, they fail to see whose legs they are gnawing at.
Any criticism of the parties that put this kind of ‘poopulism’ up for election deserves to be called out and those who continue to support those that are behind the scenes or harangue me can kiss my patootie.
Have ya noticed that a Marxist is in the white house because stupid people sat out the 2008 election .
Maybe those people were smart and sat out because the choices were McCain and Obama.
