Meg Whitman, the billionaire former eBay chief executive who poured tens of millions of her own fortune into her first-time bid for political office, easily won the Republican primary for California governor Tuesday, advancing to face a Democratic icon, former two-term Gov. Jerry Brown.

That pretty much says it for me...
Only 5% of Orange County has reported. Just maybe... things will turn?
“I have no problem with a person using their brain to become a billionaire and I think if a person is smart enough to do that they can probably do a better job than a body-builder in running the state.”
Yeah, and that body-builder was smart enough to make himself rich as well so I don’t see how that makes Whitman any different than Arnold using your criteria.
I was counting on maybe the most in year in the history of the US for CA to come through.
Guess not. You just elected your last dying breath.
I voted for Poizner/Devore, but they lost so I will be supporting Whitman/Fiorini against Brown/Boxer in Nov. You and pissant act like two year olds. You didn’t get what you want so now you want to piss on everyone else. There is a point where being sore losers defeats your stated objective, as well as showing no character. Man up.
Same here...
“people who call women names”
Equal rights are a b____, aren’t they?
Do you have any problems calling men names? Didn’t think so. Get over it. She’s a Twit!
Honestly I don’t think it’s that big a deal, if a Republican can’t even finish in 2nd place, he wasn’t going to win in a face off any way.
Actually I don’t call men names, either, I refer to their name... the lack of general respect for women on this site is really telling.......
He made his money acting.. she actually made it in business.
“...lack of general respect for women on this site is really telling...”
Hang around, sister, it’s gets better.
BTW, it’s a politician. I don’t care at all about what’s between its legs.
This is your second post in this thread calling Whitman a liar. For those of us not in CA, can you be specific about her lies? Thanks.
You are fighting the good fight. Freepers like Doughty One are killing us. They refuse to vote for Republicans who are not conservatives, and end up handing us radical communists. With friends like that, who needs Socialists?
Thanks AC.
I wish. Good night.
Yep..and at some point one becomes a useful idiot to the evil regime...
No problem guy. You enjoy the rewards of your victory.
It’s a big deal. No Conservative will ever be on a November ballot in California again. This is essentially the whole ball of wax.
Whitman was pleased as punch to be the campaign finance chairman for this man. You tell me, do you think she’s a Conservative. Read this stuff and tell me if you believe a long list of Conservative things she has been promising about herself, if she could back this clown.

Bingo. I knew you couldn’t back up your idiotic claim that Gerry Brown is less liberal today that before.
I knew it.
