I can't say that I have ever been pleased with our governor's overall job performance.

Waiting for some a-hole to come in here and post Edwin Edwards so I can rip him a new one.

I heard good things about Gary Johnson in New Mexico.

Wisconsin: Scott Walker, without a doubt. The scam the left ran in 2018 to oust him was a dry run for Nov. 2020.

Dumb Bell Edwards is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful governor I've ever known in my life.

I think in terms of "least worst" when I compare politicians.

Bob Riley seemed to do a pretty good job, but what the hell, George Wallace!

Mike Foster was probably the best La. has ever had. Jindal being the worst.

Lifelong California resident and 43 years old. I can’t recall one that was good. Maybe Pete Wilson?

I found this on his wiki page:
quote:

A September 1998 Los Angeles Times poll found 55% of registered voters in California favored Wilson's job performance.


How times have changed here. Golden State no longer.

While living in LA, somehow it was Buddy Roemer. Since moving to Texas, I'd say Abbott.

Tennessee has had some good ones. Ned McWhorter (Dem) was very good and Bill Lee (Rep) is doing a good job now. Tennessee is historically a well run state, so most are working to keep it that way.

Foster has been the only non-horrible governor since I have been alive in Louisiana. So I guess him.

It's Mike Foster and it isn't even close.

Pretty much everything right (relative to the others).

If we could have cloned him, we'd probably be making progress.

Guiliani, cleaned up Times Square to where its no longer a shithole.

Same needs to be done with the French Quarter.
