Are you kidding? I love visiting New Mexico....but you are clueless.

New Mexico is a poor state and receives among the HIGHEST amounts of FEDERAL AID per capita. By contrast, California takes far fewer federal dollars per capita than N.M.

Here's a census report from Aug. 2010 reporting on federal aid by state from 2009.

You should be thanking weathly states like California for SENDING federal aid to NEW MEXICO.

Finally, you've got budget problems in New Mexico too....people in glass houses should not throw stones.

Well, at least the Republicans will not be blamed for the problems Ca will continue to have. Oh, I take that back, they probably will be blamed. Somehow the problems will be Reagan's fault.

Last night vicories were no real surprise I don't think.

California voted for a Democrat for Governor...the Republican was termed out. Prop. 19 was defeated....so pot was not legalized for recreational use.

You've been smoking too much of the green stuff yourself. You are the lazy bum from Texas who applied for food stamps on your first day in California and spoke so "highly" of how easy it is to get dope in California. See your previous thread here:

Thanks for being such a productive member of Californian society......I'd be happy to buy you a bus ticket back to Texas.

I bet crapos nick name all through his school yrs was crap. When someone had to #2 the kids would say they gotta take a crapo.

That would be rough.

You live in New Mexico? I don't think you have room to talk

Nope! Retreads and the progressive "dream team" just as I predicted.

Whitman got clobbered. Shew blew enough cash to allow several families to retire comfortably, and she lost by over a million votes.

More people voted for weed than Whitman. That means there are some decent Republicans.

It's even worst for Republicans than thought last night since Steve Cooley is now well behind Kamala Harris for state attorney general. Channel 5\ KTLA announced that Cooley canceled his press conference this morning. Looks like a total sweep for Democrats including Loretta Sanchez congressional seat in Orange county.

Latinos are being identified as one of the major reasons for keeping California Democratic. Proud to be Rican today!

Add insult to injury; the deceased Democratic congresswoman from Long Beach beat the alive Republican candidate. Now new governor Jerry Brown will fill the seat with another Democrat. Even dead Democrats beat Republicans!
