GO SIMON

Much of the DemocRats' strategy appears to be shaping up as relying on voter ignorance of what venture capitalists do.
The subcurrent is that Simon is a "failed businessman" because so many ventures he's invested-in have gone the way of Pacific Coin.
Their bet, of course, is that people don't understand the vital role that VCs play in the national and State economy: they invest in the riskiest of endeavors on the bet that perhaps one out of a hundred will hit it big. This is the true engine of economic progress and job-creation for America, and Simon's firm has a great track record in this respect as this award makes clear.
We need to start focusing on Simon's success stories. "Bill Simon didn't just complain about smut on TV, he did something about it, and today we have the PAX TV network." That sort of thing.
I'd add, of course, "He didn't just complain about greasy, tasteless, overcooked Chinese food, he did something about it, and today we have PF Chang's." ;-)

Are the rats leaving the sinking ship Davis? Maybe Bustamante knows more dirt than we do, so he issued the commendation as a welcoming gesture to his next boss: Gov. Simon.
assuming that Bustamante defeats Bruce McPherson for Lt. Gov.
