A NEW STATE NICKNAME

  • Feb. 8th, 2008 at 6:35 PM
Early this week I made arrangements to contact Larry Sabato, director of the University of Virginia Center for Politics to get some comments on the New Mexico Democratic Caucus as the results came in Tuesday night.

We all know what happened Tuesday night.

So today I emailed Sabato to apologize for not contacting him Tuesday. (Not that he probably minded all that much. He's a much-in-demand pundit and had a gig with the BBC on Super Tuesday night.)

He responded, commenting on the lack of results from this state:

"I think New Mexico is a lovely state and I enjoy visiting. But this is outrageous. Maybe the state should change its slogan from Land of Enchantment to The New Florida."
