Spendthrift

Why would we want to support someone who can blow through $39-million in a quixotic bid to run a state that has a ~$39-billion deficit. Shouldn't we be looking around for someone who understands the value of a dollar?

Way back on March 23rd, when she had only dropped $27.2-million, her pace of spending outstripped even my buddy Steve on a bad-luck poker streak in Vegas:
Meg Whitman continues her meg-a-spending ways. In the first 76 days of 2010, Whitman spent a staggering $27.2 million, shattering California spending records to smithereens. Since entering the race in 2009, Whitman has dropped $46 million in her spending rampage to become governor.

To frame that $27.2 million into relatable terms, Whitman has spent more than $350,000 a day, nearly $15,000 an hour, almost $250 a minute, or more than $4 a second.
Fiscal insanity.
