Governor Jerry Brown
Of California Uber Alles fame?
Ex-eBay boss Meg Whitman only has a paltry $9m left in the pot for spending on her campaign to become Governor of California. Whitman raised a record-breaking $140m for her campaign. But $119m of Meg Whitman's campaign fund came from one donor - Meg Whitman. This breaks the previous self-funding record held by Michael …
Yes, that Jerry Brown ... but I wouldn't pay to much attention to the political rantings of Jello "shock people to make a buck" Biafra ... I mean, he DID go to school at UC Santa Cruz, land of plentiful cheep drugs, where a local saying is "The mind is a terrible thing, let's get wasted".

My personal preference is to eliminate elections and just pick a citizen at random to fill to post of mayor, governor, representative, senator, president, etc. every four years. I can't believe that random selection could be worse than the current crop of term-serving ignoramuses we have "serving the public" now.
...incompetent fool who blew THREE BILLION on Skype... on Skype. Now that's something on the large scale of stupid, utterly clueless incompetence, isn't?
When eBay sold it they took over BILLION dollar hit, thanks to her "executive skills"... she's actually worse than Fiorina, the glorified PR lady. :)
I say keep the bastards in office until they die but instead vote every few years to adjust their power attitude, you know rolled up newspaper on the snout sort of thing. Everyone loves term limits but it only takes one term to get a full pension and all the "retirement" perks for life. We'll see who wants to be governator when they personally have to rotate shifts with garbage collectors and sewer workers on the midnight shift every other Friday night. "Oh yeah, we got a sewer backedup in line 28 running 3 miles from under the ball stadium to a string of taco joints and sports bars, hey gov you're up."
