As I said in an earlier post, Heinrich is a left-wing environmental radical who opposes oil and gas drilling in favor of windmills and solar panels. He probably will lose the oil patch but his railing against fossil fuel drilling and infrastructure (e.g. Keystone pipeline) likely will win the ABQ area and for sure the SF-Northern NM Dem region. Rasmussen has Democrat Heinrich up by 7 48-41, 7 percent undecided. The margin of error is plus or minus 4.5 percent.

(The NM list is available on my FR homepage for anyone to use. Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from the list.)
Another idiot ready to put their own selfish personal wants in front of a nation.
Wow, I believe that I have read several post today where some other Republican has been thrown under a damn bus.
“Heinrich up by 7”
Ouch! Let her say whatever she wants.
If I were in her shoes I’d have a ‘friend’ release a report showing a big natural gas find in NM...
The source seems to be a left-wing loon site.
Joe Monahan is friend of no Republican or conservative.
Joe Craig of Craig and Co., an ABQ consulting firm, writes that not all of New Mexico is acting like a slacker:Went to Carlsbad and had to book a room two weeks in advance. Motels were booked, restaurants were full. Carlsbad Schools are preparing for a bond in February for $60 million. New $9-10 million addition to the Eddy County Sheriff's office is being awarded for design. Roswell, Artesia, Hobbs all looked prosperous. Of course that is oil or energy money as they call it. Poor little Lovington looked like it needed some loving, but hey one out of 5 towns ain't bad.
Kept mulling over the economic black hole that is ABQ/Santa Fe on the long drive back. The best conclusion that I came to is lack of leadership in Santa Fe and Albuquerque.
It's wild down here - I have a tell-tale way of knowing if the economy is booming - watch the convenience stores. If they close at 11 p.m., it's booming as no one wants to work graveyard if there's more money to be made in a day job. Drive down the highway, signs looking for electricians on job sites, drivers with a CDL can set their days and hours, RV's looking for a place to park, rents through the roof. Pages of professional help-wanted ads in the Sunday news paper. City/county coffers overflowing with cash from sales taxes and oil field royalties rebated from the state. Life is good!
she is pathetic
