Why the heck not? Let's hope the people of your country are bright enough to flush King John down his porcelain throne. Hrm...that's my new tagline!
Bush can ensure victory in New Mexico in Three Steps:
1. In Albuquerque or Farmington give a speech about how the EPA has a responsibility to protect animals, but should do so rationally and responsibly and not at the expense of the people of New Mexico by draining precious resevoires and jepordizing future water supplies. Speak how water policy will be as important as energy policy and should be developed now! From there Seg into how the Natural Gas of New Mexico as a clean fuel has an important role to play in the energy policies of the future.
2. In Los Alamos Stump (pun intended) on his Wildfire speech and point out how he wants to stop our forests from going up in smoke by sensible forest management, rather than shrugging off modern wildfire as a "natural" part of the ecosystem. Hold up the Native Americans in praise for their stewardship of their lands. Thank the men of the Mescalero Apache tribe for risking their lives each summer around the country fighting wildfires. Also thank the citizens of New Mexico for their support of science and the Federal Lab systems, ensure them this long standing role as a backbone of research is one that will only expand under his leadership.
3. In Las Cruces(My home town! Given in spanish which he speaks well) Talk about how the family is the core, and how he believes faith based and community organizations, ones own neighbors and family can help those in need better than welfare and the federal government. Speak to how he would like to promote the family, the values of the people of New Mexico. Thank those members of the military throughout the state protecting our freedom. Thank the citizens of the state for providing much research, and land for training our soldiers and developing new sources of security like Missile Defense. Thank New Mexico for its largely un-publicized and important role in space exploration. Lastly thank New Mexico for Green Chili!
When in New Mexico be seen eating a Green Chili Cheeseburger at the Owl cafe (preferably in San Antonio). Be heard conversing in spanish. Wear a bolo tie or no tie. Do not reference Texas, no matter how badly you want to talk about your ranch in crawford. Do not talk about immigration at all ever. And try not to make any Aggie jokes, wrong aggies anyway... but do talk about Brian Urlacher and Notah Begay.

We returned on Sunday night, and the car wasn't there. Hubby called the police and reported it stolen. That's when they informed him that it was towed because it was parked in a No Parking zone. When hubby told them where it had been, and that it WAS a legal parking place, they informed him that during the weekend, the former police chief's funeral had been held at a nearby church and the police put up No Parking signs along the street. Of course, we'd never have known that because we weren't in town. Nevertheless, we had to pay $50 to get the car out of impound, and go out to West Hell NJ to spring it!
I'd sue the Kerry campaign in small claims court.
"...pay $106 to get his truck back"
Amendment V
"No person shall be ...be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use without just compensation."
Hafer v. Melo, 502 U.S. 21 (1991) — State officers may be held personally liable for damages based upon actions taken in their official capacities.
Soldal v. Cook County, 506 U.S. 56 (1992) — State or local officials who stand by or protect an unlawful eviction or seizure are liable for damages under 42 USC 1983.
Unless I received proper compensation promptly for the towing charges, I would sue and own the Alburqueque police officer's involved with the "SS" pensions, homes, savings accounts, children's college education money, and garnish their wages for their unlawful behavior.
Then I would file a federal suit against the "SS" for being deprived of my property without due process.
Didn't the Nazi's have a secret police with "SS" as the acronym?
A Marine Colonel on his way home from work at the Pentagon came to a dead halt in traffic and thought to himself, "Wow, this traffic seems worse than usual, nothing is moving."
He notices a police officer walking back and forth between the lines of cars, so he rolls down his window and asks, "Excuse me, Officer, what seems to be the hold up?"
The officer replies, "Senator Kerry is just so depressed that veterans are criticizing his medals and actions that he just stopped his motorcade in the middle of the Beltway, and he is threatening to douse himself in gasoline and set himself on fire.
He says it's breaking his campaign budget attacking back at the vets.
So I'm walking around taking up a collection for him."
"Oh really? How much have you collected so far?"
"So far about three hundred gallons, but I've got a lot of folks still siphoning."
Can't let the peons' property get in the way of his glorious procession, now can we?
