I've not been much impressed with our newly elected *Republican* Governor. Sometimes I have to pointedly remind myself that he's not a Barnes clone.

What a waste.

Same here... I really thought my vote for him would be a wasted protest vote, and he was doomed to lose. Now that he's in office, I wonder if my vote wasn't wasted after all- he's proposing things I largely oppose.

The scary thing is he might be worse- far worse.
I think Barnes was rated in the top 3 of Govs for fiscal responibility by the Cato institute.Top Dem in the country beat all but 2 or 3 small state western Republicans.
