Real Progress for Regular People

I just watched Gov. Bill Richardson's recent visit to New Hampshire on C-SPAN. He did a great job. I like his theme of the Do Nothing Republican White House and Congress. He kept reiterating that the work of real progress for regular people has taken place at the state level like New Mexico. Richardson has secured a budget surplus and on top of that has lowered taxes for those who need it. His theme of real progress has legs. Governor Richardson has a proven track record and personality. He seemed relaxed and at ease while campaigning. I am assured once again he's the Democrats' answer in 2008.

Also, I found an interesting Q&A with the Sun-Sentinel in Florida and Richardson.

I appreciate the anonymous comment. Very respectful. I stand by my honest comments without relegating to name-calling.

Mr. Richardson represented the Northern part of NM for several years before he went to the Clinton WH. ,During that time, he allowed that portion of NM( except for SF and TAOS) to languish way behind the rest of the state.

As Governor, NM has failed to addres: the severe Drug use and increase in addicts in towns such as Espanola; the fact that NM is the highest DUI deaths state in the country; consistantly ranks 47-50 out of the 50 states in health care, education & school rankings; has the one the highest child abuse records in the country.

This is all the while having a permanant fund of over $1 billion dollars (that was set up long before he carpetbagged his way into NM)that is used to back up the state and education districts borrowings.

To see how well Ol Bill has done, just drive highway 44 to Cuba without having to get your car realigned or try to drive up the western side of the state after a snow storm and see if the roads are even passable.

Bill Richardson.....Oh yes, the iron fisted ruler of the Bananna Republic of New Mexico.

He's never actually here, surrounds himself with former members of the local and state media who have all sold out to big paychecks for newly created state exempt employee positions created by Bill so that he has complete insulation from the real world.

No original ideas, changes his positions on anything daily as necessary to satisfy the cattle that foloow him.

Never had an original idea or plan about any position he's ever served in politics, nor worked a real job outside of politics, and suffers from dillusions of grandeur as he fancies himself being the first socialist Mexican-American president of the US.

But, he's dreamy and has a swell sense of humour. He constantly denies he wants anything but to be the president, but believe me, if Hillary or Osama ends up as pres., he'll bail from here in a New York second for any cling-on job he can get at the white house....
