California NOW President: 'Meg Whitman Could Be Described As A Political Whore'
California NOW President Parry Bellasalma said that while calling Whitman a "whore" was a poor choice of words, the description was accurate. "The very troubling issue that is embedded in that call is what prompted the description of Meg as a 'whore' is basically that she sold out Californians for an endorsement and a $450,000 independent expenditure campaign," she said.

1. Someone needed to say it
I think pretty much everyone knows the context of this whole flap.

2. No one better than NOW - the original comment would never have been interpreted
to mean anything else than it is said to mean here.

3. I wish I could had said that.
That's as close as I can get to saying that without actually saying that.
