I found this article very interesting on the way candidates used their money to blast ads all over the airwaves and then hide from answering questions.
"Republican gubernatorial candidates Meg Whitman in California and Rick Scott in Florida have both independently set election spending records by funneling millions of dollars from their personal fortunes into their campaigns. The former eBay CEO and former Columbia/HCA chief have also both come under intense media scrutiny for avoiding reporters and running away from debates."
Jerry Brown doesn't have the funding to compete with Meg Whitman who has put in almost $100 million.
