Since she is my Governor, a couple of thoughts:

Here in NM we have over 50% of the population on Medicare or Medicade. I have not seen her take any steps to reduce this number.

Here in NM we have over 21% of the population on Food Stamps. I have not seen her take any steps to reduce this number.

One of her signature issues was repealing drivers licences for illegals. We have finally have a law that addresses the issue - sort of. They can still get drivers licences, but they look different than regular licences. Yay.

She has not been a kickin’ ass and taking names kind of Governor.

Then she STUPIDLY injects herself into national politics by STUPIDLY repudiating the candidate that is going to win the nomination. She compounds this STUPIDITY by snubbing the candidate when he visits her state.

Trump, in classic Trump mode, repays like with like and rebukes her from the podium when visiting New Mexico.

She then STUPIDLY mouths off about how offended she is.

Governor Martinez is not a rocket scientist.

Medicare is a federal program. Governor of any state has little or no control over who gets it.

As for the economy of New Mexico, it is very difficult for it to be different when it is surrounded by states with increasing dependence by populace on government handouts and bad economy due to Obama policies of high regulations, high taxes on businesses.
