5. Who cares?
It's very effective. She is greed incarnate. Anything for a buck. Can we trust her to govern in California? No way.

3. awww that's a shame
In 2001, Goldman put Whitman on its corporate board, paying her an estimated $475,000 for little more than a year of part-time service. The company also gave her insider access to the initial public offerings of hot stocks worth millions, according to the records.

McCain touted her as some kind of business guru..lol she's just another Goldman Sachs crony

4. Forwarded this via e-mail.
We don't need another governor with no experience in government. Working in government requires a different skill set than working in private enterprise.

Success in business is measured by "growing" your own business and acquiring and enjoying your own personal wealth.

Success in government is measured by organizing the public infrastructure so that others can "grow" their businesses and acquire and enjoy wealth.

Jerry Brown is the best qualified, best suited person to be governor of California. He will build the wealth of our state.

6. I like the message it gives
Edited on Fri Apr-30-10 03:12 PM by Plucketeer
But being a GOP ad, it seems fitting that it's screwed up! I live where hawks and vultures soar overhead every day. The bird silouettes in that ad are of hawks. And the bird screams are of hawks as well. Vultures don't scream like that at all! LOL!:rofl:

Edit: Seems fitting - an ad featuring birds, produced by turkeys!

8. this is great, good commercial dept from her opponent. and that 1:31 video could be shortened to 30
seconds and be very effective, it ends with Meg defending her actions, which is great!

10. Gotta love it!
And she, of course, can be expected to hit back.

Which will be enjoyable, although admittedly not as enjoyable as watching Meg get whacked upside the head.

The best part will be if they weaken each other as they fight it out in the primary race. One can but hope.
