My goodness, I would think you would be more concerned with Jerry Brown calling her a *****? Oh, well some people are more concerned about money than human dignity.

File this one, with a bullet, right behind the folder documenting how Donald Trump has spent a ton of money on real estate. Spending her own money, I'm all for it. Votes are free, for now, is there a problem with the voting consciousness of California? If she were buying voters pot at the Medical Marijuana Hut for votes, then we might have something to talk about.


File it, with a bullet!!!!

Well that's true, but what she does have to show for her ideas is, a female novice Republican politician within striking distance of a California male political institution in the bluest of blue states. Not too shabby!

Yeah...like the GOP hiring professional actors to portray west VA hicks?

My problem is wondering what she is doing spending $140 million to win a job which pays a whopping $200,000 a year. Is she out of her mind?

The GOP did not hire anyone. The media company in PHILADELPHIA was hiring people for a commercial to be run in WV. How many "WV types" live in downtown Philly???? A commercial for a WV candidate would not be credible if the people in the background had gold teeth and their pants dragging the ground.

My goodness you are comparing hiring actors to calling a woman a *****. That's kind of twisted. So were you concerned when obama spent $500 million for a $400k job?
