Whitman's very candidacy was an insult to those of us who have gone out of our way on many occasions to discharge our civic duty of voting. I'm sorry, Meg, you don't just wake up one morning, having never participated in the political process, and say "hey, you know what, I'm so great, I should be governor". It was an exercise in ego from the get-go, and thank the gods that the voters saw through it. BTW I'm no Jerry Brown fan either. The candidate I would actually have liked to vote for was Tom Campbell. Had Whitman not blown him out of the primary, maybe I could have.
