(Also, "why not?")
He isn't a "politically correct" career politician.

A career politician? our governor makes $115,345 a year. Every canidate probably can and does make more per year in their other profession. You have a career to make money. These canidates don't need the governance to make money...they already have it. Maybe he should try and be a bit more "politically correct" I don't like him blatantly smoking...our governor may not have much power but he is still a role model...and our school children are likely to see images of him, smoking. Also if he is sooo against lobbyists, why is he supporting one of the most dominate lobbyist group in the country? tobacco companies.
FYI: Our legislators only make $7,200 a year...no I did not forget a zero.

It was Strayhorn who didn't know the Mexican President.

You're right on that...I'm sorry. She's a mess isn't she?
