Meg
Whitman’s
campaign

Flanked by successful governors, Meg Whitman campaigned around California last week and vowed
to take Sacramento back from the entrenched interests and stand up for hardworking Californians
who seek a new kind of leadership.

Whoever becomes governor in California will have major repercussions around the nation, said New
Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who joined Meg in Los Angeles. “She is the best thing that can happen
to the state of California, and I am ready to work with her and other Republican governors starting
next January to stop the craziness going on in our country and bring our country back.”

Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, campaigning in Fresno and San Diego, said this is a critical election
not only for California, but for America,” Jindal told a crowd of nearly 400 in San Diego Friday
night. “You’ve got a clear choice right here. Because Meg is the only candidate in this race for
Governor who’s actually created thousands of jobs, helped thousands of small businesses get
started. She understands the greatness of California is not in our government -- it is in our people,
and it is so important to get California back on the right track.”

Gov. Christie and Gov. Jindal both said they wanted to campaign for Meg because they are
confident she can make the tough but necessary changes to turn California around. New Jersey and
Louisiana, too, have faced daunting challenges but are turning the corner because of determined
leadership at the top.

Meg pointed out that the two governors have confounded the naysayers by pushing ahead with
much needed reforms. They have stood resilient, making tough decisions and taking action. It’s
exactly that style of leadership that Meg will bring to Sacramento, should the voters elect her in
little over a month.

“There is a way forward -- we can turn California around,” Meg said in San Diego Friday night.
“There are other states that are doing the things we must do. When people tell you it can’t be done
in California, don’t believe them. We can do it too, and we will.”

In New Jersey, Gov. Christie beat an incumbent governor less than a year ago and ever since he’s
been fighting the status quo, working to eliminate the state's deficit and taking on public corruption
and the public employee unions. Gov. Jindal has shown determined spirit in not waiting for the
federal government to take action after the oil spill, and putting in place reforms to attract families
and businesses back to Louisiana.

In the year and a half she’s been on the campaign trail, Meg has earned the support of national
Republican leaders from coast to coast. In addition to Christie and Jindal, former U.S. Secretary of
State Condoleezza Rice joined Meg for an event In Burlingame this week. A supporter of Meg’s
campaign since early this year, Rice told several hundred people that she if voters care about
California’s future, Meg is their best hope to create jobs and improve the public schools.

“I know you're going to take care of the people of California. ... You are going to be a fierce fighter
for our kids,” said Rice, who has residence in California and teaches at Stanford University. “The
time for renewing the California dream has never been more urgent,” Meg said. “And the time to
send to Sacramento men and women who have a plan to create jobs, to cut government spending
and fix our education system once and for all -- that time is now.”
