The online political news site Politico says today that Lt. Gov. Diane Denish is working to set her own agenda ahead of the 2010 gubernatorial race, one that will show off a different style fro Gov. Bill Richardson. The article dubs her the "anti-Bill Richardson."
That doesn't mean she's anti-Richardson, exactly, but the story talks about her move to separate herself from the governor, while at the same time trying to appeal to Democrats she needs to get elected next year.
There is one similarity, of course: Denish is in Washington D.C. talking to the media there, something somebody else used to do a lot of.
I know Diane is different than Bill in most ways, which is a good thing ... but many of things she has done (or not done) so she could be Governor some day has compromised her integrity - starting with the tone of her tenure as Dem Party Chair, her treatment of Jerry Sandel in the Lt Gov primary, and her 'hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil' stance as Lt Gov. Bill kept her out of 'the know' but NO ONE is that oblivious, particularly a woman of her skill and intuition. She has abrogated her duty to the people and no longer 'deserves' the office.
