New Mexicans

[Ropinfool]

Sadly the majority of New Mexicans confirmed that they are STUPID! Such a rich state in natural rescources and we are content with being the poorest. SAD!

LAST EDITED ON Nov-07-12 AT 06:33PM (MST)[p]This is not productive.

I'm sure I was in the tank for Romney as much as anyone in this state, and I admit to being very disappointed with the results last night. However, I appreciated the graciousness Romney displayed in his concession speech, and also the graciousness that President Obama displayed during his acceptance speech. It made me think of all the nice people that I met yesterday while waiting in line almost two hours to vote, even knowing that most of them we're probably not voting for my guy.

All that goodwill ended when Brokaw came back on and starting labeling Romney voters as voting for the party of racists, bigots, sexists, homophobes, etc. I find that incredibly insulting. Likewise, I'm sure those who voted for President Obama are incredibly insulted by everything the conservative talking heads have called them (including stupid).

As Americans who love this country for what it has been and continues to be, I think we all should take a step back and look at what we're doing by continuing to drive this wedge between ourselves.

I don't know if it will last, but so far post election, the President is saying that he is willing to work with both sides to address our economic problems. He is exactly right.

I think there is much more to be gained by both sides coming together based on our common decency than to follow the lead of the talking head types who profit in stirring up conflict.

Our kids and grand kids deserve better than this.

Very well said Mozey!

true but im still ashamed of the people of my state, and half the country. they truely have lost the values that this country was founded upon and totaly developed a sense of entitlement. the only thing that's going to grow in the next four years is the lower class and the government. based on the stock market yesterday, the investors have no confidence in our leadership, government, or economy.

I am almost embarrassed. It's a shame to see the morals and values of our state be diminished due to the mindset of 3 cities. The rest of the state will continue to suffer because of their decisions and NM will continue take more government handouts than it ever puts back into the system.

Add more to the pile I live in Rio Rancho where we had a total of 5 voting locations.There were people still voting when the news HAD ALREADY given the win to Obama! I just puked in my mouth! Can't fix stupid!

I am all for driving that "wedge" deeper between the two halves of this country (and yes, I know where that will lead). Every time we "compromise" we move away from my ideals and towards socialism. ie: we lose some of our freedom every time.

Sad, but welfare and unions rule this state! Martin Hindlick really? Americans dying for no reason over seas, 8+% unemployment, down graded US standing, down graded US currency, etc and we voted for more.

It is over and sad, but we are Americans and will survive, just wondering how bad the bleeding will be in this next round of 4-years and if we will still blame Bush? God bless the US!

I've learned alot of lessons from history. The worlds greatest & longest standing empire (Rome's)downfall was exactly what you see happening now. Corrupt politics, Get ready America!

NM is a very poor state on average. If you have driven around it much, you have a good idea of who the blue voters are.

Honestly I'm more surprised by Colorado. Too many GD dope smoking hippies from CA have moved there and taken over the damn state. Thankfully most of them stay on the front so you don't have to run into them in the back country.

America has to regain a thirst and desire for knowledge. Then value that knowledge to make INDIVIDUAL decisions with short/long term goals that matter to current & future generations of our country for ALL.

Land of Enchantment or the Land of Entitlement.

Different things to different people. There is hope for this state, some states are a lost cause CA, NY, most of the north east.
Still a great state to live in and hunt in.

I don't understand how we elected a republican governor and a republican major if we are a blue state. I know in the past we've always elected dems but I hoped we'd moved past that. Too many people on the take and like rush said its hard to beat Santa Claus. I'm also embarrassed.
