If Jim Gibbons thinks this will get him the latino vote, he is out of his mind. This chunky looking fella obviously had the juice for this political juice job. Too bad he has aligned himself with Jim Gibbons, it may prove to be a hindrance in the future.
I'm deeply disappointed with Governor Gibbons' choice for the job. Surely there's a better qualified person out there who isn't a product of affirmative action programs.
Nice job playing the race-card JohnD. I think we should be sure and not give this fellow a chance. Of course, new blood in a government bureaucracy MUST be bad. Right?
