Although I don't know that much about all the other governors, I'll have to say Ed Rendell (formerly Jim McGreevey).

Blanco is a 60-year old paperweight who has less sense than a sack of rice, but hateful she isn't. A horrible governor and an embarrassment to the state of Louisiana?, absolutely.

I don't much like S either, but the worst GOP governor is Bob Taft. The one I hate is Bob Riley. He's worse than the Democrat he replaced.

You should seriously reconsider that second statement.

I can't believe that I forgot about Bob Taft. Therefore, I change my vote to Bob Taft.

I know he's got a Republican State Legislature, but I haven't seen him do very much or make efforts to compromise with Republicans.  I think he'd be a good Senator however and I'd like to see him run against Santorum (which won't happen unfortunetly), and have Casey take over the governor's mansion.

I am so glad a southeastern PA Democrat sees that.

Is this some kind of joke? Rendell has got more through the state legislature in two years then most Governors get through in 8 years.

His economic stimulus package, Pre-school funding, $200 million in block grants for schools, Gaming/Property tax relief, $200 million in abatements for physicians to counter medical malpractice insurance costs, PACE and PACENET expansion, strategic sourcing initiative, grants for renewable power industries, $10 million be used to pay for subsidized child-care services, eliminating a waiting list for subsidized child care for low-income working families, health care tax credits for retired workers whose company can no longer provide health benefits, and expanding/fixing state liquor system (opening some stores up in grocery stores etc, this needs more work obviously). Then there's the $800 million growing greener expansion which will be on the ballot in the Spring, if the Republican cooperate.

It's gotta be Taft.  What a blight on the family name.



You guys hate Blanco because she's too conservative?  You folks really don't ever want to win the Presidency again, do you?

Blanco is a good one.  She's very hated by a lot of LA Democrats--b/c she's stupid, but she put in a fabulous higher education program.  So, Warner.  I can't stand him.
