FLASHBACK: The Jennerjahn Report: Why Meg Whitman won't get my vote

By Phil Jennerjahn, Aug. 23, 2010, The Jenerjahn Report

I will not vote for Meg Whitman for Governor.

If that makes me a pariah, then so be it!

As a Conservative, to support Whitman would be a betrayal of everything I stand for and everything I believe in. It would be like asking me to change my religious faith.
It is something I cannot and will not do, under any circumstances, whatsoever.

Our party is struggling because of morally "squishy" leadership.
People who are afraid to take a stand or to make an unpopular decision.
Voters smell that weakness, and usually abandon those leaderless parties at the polls.

Ronald Reagan drew millions of Democrats to the polls to vote for him in the Presidential elections in 1984 and 1988. The reason? He had moral clarity, and voters knew it.
He believed what he believed and he didn't back down from his positions.
George W. Bush was reviled to an unprecedented level by the American left.
So much so that the phrase BDS, or "Bush Derangement Syndrome" became popular in Conservative circles.


Bush was elected President twice, because voters sensed that he had more moral clarity than his opponents, Al Gore or the self-admitted flip-flopper John Kerry.

Voters are now being bombarded with slick ads from Meg Whitman.


Whitman recently went on the John and Ken radio show and flip-flopped around like a fish out of water.


Illegal immigration is a crucial component of the California budget catastrophe.
Health care, education, and prison costs for illegal immigrants run into the billions.
Whitman could not come up with a coherent answer as to what her policies would be if she is elected. 

She has given conflicting answers on multiples occasions in the past.
To me, this shows a troubling lack of moral clarity.
She is unwilling to come out and say that illegal immigration is wrong.
Or that she will do anything about it.

There are many troubling issues with Whitman.
