Gov. Gray Davis has quietly nominated a generous political donor for a 12-year term on the University of California Board of Regents -- one of the most-coveted gubernatorial appointments in the state.

Norman J. Pattiz, founder and chairman of the nationwide radio network Westwood One, has been serving on the prestigious board since September 2001 when Davis appointed him to finish the three years remaining in the term of S. Stephen Nakashima, who resigned.

i'm surprised Doofus didn't appoint a gay illegal alien to the post.

Doofus, like Willie, is a money man. Thus, as it becomes clear that he will be replaced, Doofus will sell more pardons. Some very mean and nasty, but wealthy, folks will be released from state prisons (Vaccaville and Pelican Bay). And, every vacancy on a state board or commission is up for sale. So are authorized positions not yet filled. State jobs that are "tenured" (where the next administration can't replace) are especially good for raiing cash.
