Linda Lingle says she is for the people.
For those of us who still have a memory, as governor did she think of the people when she slammed the Superferry down a special session of the Legislature's throat, bypassing the environmental impact study and costing the state millions when it was shut down by the state Supreme Court?
Did she think of people - given our state's ranking of 49th in the country in education - when her remedy was to create Furlough Fridays, cutting much needed time for our children to learn and becoming the laughing stock of many pundits across the country?
If she wasn't backed by the Republican super PAC money, would she have nonstop commercials on TV - far more time then all other candidates combined? Does she think we are so easily fooled?
