California Working Families for Jerry Brown for Governor 2010, "a labor-supported Democratic independent-expenditure group seeking to raise $26 million to $30 million to aid Brown," has been funding a "Queen Meg" campaign in which actresses portraying Meg Whitman and Republican nominee for the U.S. Senate Carly Fiorina shadow Whitman and Fiorina on the campaign trail, "appear[ing] at Whitman and Fiorina events around the state, traveling in a bus with the words 'Queen Meg' emblazoned all over it." Pictures of "Queen Meg" have appeared prominently in California newspapers and on TV coverage.

This is the best that Saul Alinsky and $30 million can do? In a state with Nancy Pelosi and Barbara Boxer it seems a little hypocritical.

Well what can I say ? It's really sad when it all boils down to money, but such is reality.

Meg Whitman is estimated to be worth close to $2 Billion. She can spend 3 times what labor donates to Brown and it still would not make a huge dent on her personal fortune ( less than 1% of what she has ).

Should Meg Whitman win, expect to hear charges that she BOUGHT herself the governorship ( we're already hearing this charge that she and Fiorina BOUGHT their victory at the primaries ).
