"Maybe it's time to start a state lottery"

CNN.com ran something this week where they invited readers to send in their responses to various questions asked of California's gubernatorial candidates in last night's debate.

Here's my favorite:

Maybe it's time to start a state lottery. Virginia funds education with its lottery.
-- Patrick McConnell, Spotsylvania, Virginia

What a great idea!
