Martinez got elected Governor in 2010 due to Richardson's unpopularity.

Ok, Sam and Joe, which of you let him out of his cell?

His posts will be dealt with either tonight or in the next couple of days when I get to it.  I don't really care if he posts on his own thread.

Why is nkpatel1279 being silenced?

He's a blatant spambot?

What about Martin Heinrich? Everyone thinks he's hot and all.

Too much of a city slicker.  You can't win statewide here unless you're Hispanic or look like you can milk a cow.

He certainly has a shot.  He's run two great campaigns in a row with the odds stacked against him, but he'd have to be helped by a strong Obama showing in the state.  That may not come.

Wouldn't he put NM-01 at risk if he ran for the Senate?

A D+5 District during a presidential year?  That's not going to be a major concern.  Also, the urban Albuquerque district will probably be made even more democratic during redistricting as a compromise to make life easier for Steve Pearce in NM-02.

Redistricting is a wild card in most states.

Yet a D+5 seat, but one which a Republican represented since its creation till 2009. And one that is known for bizarre results. An open seat, plus a strong Republican candidate even in a presidential year is more "risk" then having Heinrich run again. Notice I never said "win", I said "risk".

Obama won 60% of the vote in this district and if he does so again, a Republican is not winning here in an open seat or an incumbent race.

Considering I'm within inches of leaving Atlasia, I decided I needed something else to keep me vaguely connected. This forum happens to be the only place on the site where I can track campaign announcements.


He's blatantly running on a program. All his posts seem pretty much robotic.
