Maybe if there actually was an auction* and she put all that campaign money into a bid instead

(the proceeds from the auction of course would go into the state budget for things that are actually important like eductation)

*winning bidder gets to be governor but cannot collect a salary, they are paying to hold that position.

That would be a very interesting idea! (especially if she had to put up more than $140 million for a "buy-it-now" XD - the state could really make better use of that money than she can, methinks.)

I hope Whitman makes herself go broke with this. And I am so glad that Californians didn't make her Governor.

Small drop in her personal fortune.

Did I ever tell you folks my Jerry Brown story?
