Meg Whitman is advising the Romney campaign

... Whitman doubts she will ever again run for elected office, and for many months she said little about the campaign. But she has started popping up recently on radio and TV. For a beaten candidate who wishes to remain relevant in politics – Whitman is advising Republican front-runner Mitt Romney in his presidential campaign, and she plans to involve herself in California ballot initiatives – it helps to stay in view.

... Romney was meeting with advisers on the East Coast when Whitman returned from the charter school to her office to join them in a video conference.

Though no Republican presidential candidate is likely to carry California – even Whitman allows that it would be "challenging" – it is a donor-rich state. She is helping Romney raise money and advising him on economic policy.

Whitman, a senior adviser to Republican presidential nominee Sen. John McCain in 2008, was mentioned that year as a possible appointee in a McCain administration. She said she would consider an appointment if Romney is elected but that no position has been discussed.
