This Gov. Martinez is giving a good speech.

[Honeycombe8]

Moving speech.

Funny how the two speakers who have gotten the biggest reaction have been two minority women.

Oh....now she's talking about she and other Republicans and Democrats "came together" to fix budget. As if. That means the Repubs were in the majority and the Dems had no choice.

1. Meh. Not so much by me.

2. Tejana Susana can talk

but her first act in office was to repay Koch Industries for the office by overturning all environmental restrictions on drilling by fiat. The court slapped her down--hard--within a week. Since then, she's been whittling away at everything under the media radar.

4. Hopefully they expose her crimes and they find something good to send her to prison.

[Honeycombe8]

6. Ouch. And she seems so nice. nt

[Warpy]

10. She's a Republican.

Republicans, by definition, are not nice, although like Tejana Susana, they might meet well.

[Honeycombe8]

11. McCain's nice. Bob Dole was nice. Chuck Hagel - nice. The prior generation of Republicans.

I don't see how this new party is going to attract independents and moderates. They are just so mean.

3. Only if they really buy into it.

I wouldn't trust her.

[Floyd_Gondolli]

8. Republicans aren't to be trusted

As a general rule.

5. Agree. Best style wise so far. The rest today were insipid. nt

[LiberalFighter]

7. "No more barriers"

Sure, if you aren't poor.

9. I thought the audience response to her Spanish...

was lukewarm.
