I've decided -

I love Arizona. Particularly it's politics.

Nationally Arizona swings Republican but we have this burly Democratic woman - who's a consummate politician - as governor.

After The News Hour we have this show on PBS called Horizon (once a week it's Horizante with an Hispanic host) - where they talk about state politics. Today they're talking about the indictment of one of our members of the House (we don't do accusation, our members' transgressions are prosecutable), and a nasty verbal brawl between the Major of Phoenix and the County Sheriff - who, yesterday, told the Mayor to "Put up or shut up"... and once a week our Governor Janet comes on and talks about stuff, she's got a sense of humor - it's good times. D adds - Janet likes to joke about her Gubernatorial Condominium, as Arizona may be the only state without a Governor's Mansion.


But D also tells me not to worry - Montana will be to my liking. Apparently the other day the Governor of Montana was explaining his policy as regards national initiatives, to paraphrase "Eventually, when the fed tells us what to do but doesn't give us the money to do it, we just have to tell them to go to hell, and do what we want."

Yes - I think I will like that.
