Unfortunately, Tim Kaine was just elected in my adopted state, so he'll be in office for another 4 years.

That many...I didn't expect it.

So the point being that these governors are vulnerable?

Okay. What kind of conversation were you hoping to spur with this?

I thought Taft was a Republican...or is he a RINO?

RINO is too conservative of a description for Bob Shaft.

He does have a (R) after his name but that's about it...

The are democrat governors. There is nothing "democratic" about them. Furthermore, when someone asks them what party they belong to, they don't say "I'm a democratic".

I don't know about the rest of them, but Easley in North Carolina is an indication of the extreme ineffectiveness of the NCGOP. I'd be hard pressed to name a more worthless bunch of idiots.

OK. I counted 11 on your list. Now count the number of blue states with Republican Governors -- New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Vermont, Maryland, Minnesota, California, Hawaii (9). Hopefully, we will be adding Pennsylvania to the later list come November.

If you look at the county map of Wisconsin, I would definately consider us a RED state with a BLUE dipsh*t Governor. ;)

11,841 votes short for Bush in 2004. Easily 10,000 of them fraudulent votes for sKerry in Dane & Milwaukee counties, if not more.

Just one woman's opinion. :)

Her term ends in 23 months. Are you suggesting she'll be impeached?
