Go away Whitman!

We don't want Meg Whitman! She will do what Republicans always do: give corporations big tax cuts, then slash education spending and then borrow money to make sure we are too saddled with debt to fund education ever again.

Republicans want INEQUALITY.

Whitman will not win because we don't want California to fall off the map. Republicans not welcome here!

Meg for anything official

Give 'em Meg ! It appears Meg will be buying a Gov. seat of some type and next on her list is CA

Meg Whitman Govenor? Now Your Talking Crazy!

You have to be kidding if you think Meg Whitman has integrity and honor. She has insulted the very people who helped make ebay what it was. I am trying to get away from ebay because of the things she did to insult me as a seller. The lies they propogate about user problems that are only beificial to ebay. The lates is that you cannot accept money orders or cash as payment. That is so they can channel you through their money machine Paypal and make more money with theri greedy and insulting ways of business. If you thin that is integrity than you must be somoking pot!

This woman ruined the whole philosophy on what ebay was started. She brought in her corporate greed factor and raped the users on ebay with high and distorted fees. She than put forth a plan to amazonize ebay and get rid of the small sellers that ebay was created by. She is the most disgusting woman on the face of the earth, I loathe her and all of her corporate ideals that are on course to ruin this great country. If she is elected in California, it will be the end for that state. She is no better than Madoff in screwing people for her own selfish goals. Look at ebaysucks.com to see the controlling and manipulating way she has guided ebay to lower their stock value so that they can buy it back from investors. I thought manipulating stock prices violates SEC and Federal laws. But than again look what happened to Madoff so far, arrested and staying in a luxury jail while he wait his court date. We need to get Meg and all of these corporate crooks and give them the rope!

Would be nice for someone who knows how to run a business run the state of California. Now if we can get rid of some of the tax and spend state congressman we would be in great shape. Don't hate on Mrs. Whitman afterall what experience did Arnold had? Married to a member of the Kennedy is not experience in my book.

Cate Stein ????

Whether you like her or not is one thing, but to say "not skilled in economics" is arrogant. She ran one of the most successful companies in the world as well as receiving a degree in economics from a little school known as Princeton!

Don't like her, fine. Don't like republicans, fine. But for once, lets stop all the lies, name calling and scare speeches that politics have become over the past 4 elections!

On a side note, I am not a Rep. or Dem., but like to set facts straight, which enables me to not be a politician!

Meg Whitman? Be serious.

Meg Whitman is the classic example of a CEO who profited from business cycles more than her applied skills. Focus on what she left behind for an accurate picture. This is a strange, oddly conservative ex-CEO who has nowhere else to feed than the public trough. She's not skilled in government, economics, or policy. She's rich, but with whose money?

Meg Whitman and Mayor Bloomberg are causing me to choke on a held position on Republicans after I quit being a Republican. I thought that most of them were C type students and they had given up the principals of honor and integrity I thought the party stood for.

It would be interesting to me if I rejoined the Republican Party if Whitman and Bloomberg could lead the party to again adopt honor and integrity as well as attract some very bright people.
