Whitman denies she knew housekeeper was illegal

LOS ANGELES – California gubernatorial candidate Meg Whitman  employed an illegal immigrant Mexican housekeeper for years even though the federal government alerted her in 2003 to the maid's dubious legal status, the worker and her attorney claimed.

The Republican Whitman — who on the campaign trail has called for tougher sanctions against employers who hire illegal workers — said the allegations amounted to a baseless stunt. She said she was not aware the housekeeper, Nicky Diaz Santillan, was in the U.S. illegally until the woman volunteered the information in 2009, after which Whitman fired her. In all, the woman worked for the Whitman family for nine years, making $23 an hour.

Whitman also denied Diaz Santillan's claim that she received a 2003 letter from the Social Security Administration that said the Social Security number provided by the housekeeper did not match the name on file. Allred did not provide documents to back up her claim.

"We never received that letter or that notification," Whitman said after a campaign event in San Jose, Calif.

Her campaign released employment applications filled out when the housekeeper was hired in 2000, including a copy of a Social Security card and a California driver's license, that indicated the woman was a legal resident.

The allegations by Diaz Santillan, 39, and her attorney, Gloria Allred of Los Angeles, a longtime Democratic supporter who once gave money to Whitman's opponent, Democrat Jerry Brown, challenged Whitman's credibility on a key campaign issue, illegal immigration. The billionaire former eBay chief executive has called for tough sanctions, starting with fines, against employers who hire illegal workers.

"We do have to hold employers accountable for hiring only documented workers. And we do have to enforce that law," Whitman said Tuesday in a debate with Brown at the University of California, Davis.

Throughout her employment "Nicky was undocumented and ... Whitman was aware of her status," Allred said.

The timing of the allegations about five weeks from Election Day, the lack of documentation to support the claims and Allred's Democratic ties left her open to questions about motive in the dead-heat race. Allred was a Hillary Rodham Clinton delegate at the Democratic National Convention in 2008.

"The timing of the allegations about five weeks from Election Day, the lack of documentation to support the claims and Allred's Democratic ties left her open to questions about motive in the dead-heat race."

The only question about motive was whether to release it now or wait till next week.
This is classic. Its likethe  old story about LBJ. He wanted to spread a rumor that one of his opponents in a legislative race was taking the term "animal husbandry" a bit too literally. When told no one would believe it, LBJ's response was "Hell, I don't care about that. I just want the son of a bitch to have to stand up in public and deny it". (I did not have sexual relations with that pig Monica....  Oops, wrong race).
FQ13 who is with Tom on this one, you have to love it. The bastards deserve each other. Downside is that we get stuck with them.
