The Internet's Candidate for California Governor Wars with the Internet
Meg Whitman would like to be governor of California, but the former eBay CEO should demonstrate she can govern her own website first: The commenters on MegWhitman.com are in open revolt. It's brutal.
The campaign site only shows the most recent 30 comments. But even from this very limited sampling, a common theme emerges: Whitman isn't paying any attention, despite her promise that "you will hear directly from me" on her "California forum." She's neither answering, nor even censoring, her critics. Chaos!
It's a good thing Whitman has never run a major website with a large and vocal community before, or this might reflect poorly on her management skills.
