Meg Whitman, who is challenging Jerry Brown for the governorship of California, had a domestic servant named Nicandra Santillan Diaz. About a year ago, Whitman fired Diaz when it became apparent that she was in the country illegally. Now, Whitman is drawing fire for hiring an illegal alien, while at the same time being criticized for having fired said illegal. Meanwhile, Diaz is still in the country, and using language like "threw me away like garbage" to describe her firing.
Why this illegal hasn't been deported is not explained, nor has anyone said just who found her and is using her for political gain, but the answers to those questions are fairly obvious.
The real unknown is why anyone would want to be governor of this ungovernable state, let alone spend over a hundred million bucks in the campaign.
Surely, we could find someone more qualified than Whitman, who has campaigned on the "my opponent is worse than me" formula, but Jerry Brown isn't it.
