So Meg Whitman thinks that she can win the election even without the Hispanic vote. I'd really be surprised. In particular, since reading about housekeeper-gate. It will be interesting when all the facts come out from Gloria Allred, but I think that the damage may have already been done to her image (if she still has one). It is pretty amazing that she has spent $120M of her own money, and yet is still neck and neck with Jerry Brown. There is no doubt though, that housekeeper-gate has cost her many, many votes, some of which are Hispanic.
A wino walked into a bar one day, and started begging for drinks.
One of the patrons tells him he'll buy the old sot a drink, but
first he has to take a drink from the spittoon over in the
corner.
The wino is in a bad way, so he takes the guy up on his offer,
goes over and picks up the spittoon. He raises it to his lips and
starts chugging away.
The guy at the bar, who didn't really believe the wino would take
him up on his offer, is horrified. "Stop! Stop!" he yells, "I'll
buy you a drink now!"
But the wino keeps on drinking from the spittoon.
Again the guy at the bar calls out, "Stop! Put the spittoon down!
I'll buy you a drink!"
But the wino keeps on drinking.
Finally, after about five minutes he stops, and puts the spittoon
down. So they guy at the bar says, "Hey, didn't you hear me
telling you to stop? Why didn't you stop?"
"I couldn't," the wino replies, "it was all one string."
