1. Very nice and informative blog about a *very* important gubernatorial race

in a very important State.

I'm still completely flabbergasted that in a State with so many Latinos (Mexican-Americans have informed me that they don't like the term "Hispanics&quot , that the State legislature and governor's mansion is occupied by very red and right-wing Republicans. It just blows my mind that the State went for McCain and then Romney instead of Obama.

8. Well, considering that woman's bigotry and misogyny -

if not hate for her own gender -and given that research has shown that prejudice is tied to a low IQ and a low IQ is tied to "conservatism", I'm not really surprised.

But it's women like that who are a stain and a drain on the female gender and empowerment. These women are the sell-outs who'll do anything for a buck. Like the ditsy Sarah Palin.
