Which GOP governor has damaged his state the most?

[rdean]

It's a difficult choice. Crispie has been pretty bad. Downgraded 8 times. Billions in debt. So has Walker.
But I think maybe Perry. Cutting 5 billion in education. I know Republicans don't see that as important, but the business community certainly does.

Anyone else?

 

[Statistikhengst]

Pretty good OP, rdean . However, I think your thread would be more effective if you remove "GOP" and make it open to all 50 Governors. Plus, exactly how do we want to measure this? Lots of mitigating factors, here. And for every factoid we bring, someone somewhere will scream that it is wrong. Considering the terrible mess that Kansas is in, Brownback should go on that list as well. But I am quite sure we will find a "blue" state or two that is not doing well, either.

Actually, I am getting very tired of the designations of "blue" and "red". The larger swath nation is more purple than either side really wants to admit.

Let's get members of all persuasions to help make a list of criteria first and then turn this into a serious thread about accomplishments and failures. And yes, Education should be at the top of the pile. I give it a 6% chance that this will happen.

I agree. Gotta be Perry since he's created fully 1/3 of all the new jobs in America.

And we all know how dimocrap scum feel about work.

Now, Kalifornication, OTOH, is a liberal Mecca. Jobs? We don't need no stinking jobs. We got Gubner Moonbeam

Dogs bark, ducks quack, babies cry; dimocraps lie.

It's what they do. From the Lying ********** in Chief on down -- dimocrap filth lie.

Every last one of them. It's an autonomic function with them. Like breathing. It's their first instinct. Like a felon hiding from the Cops, whenever they see someone they're not familiar with, their first instinct is to run.

That's the way it is with dimocraps. Their first instinct is to lie.

Can they tell the truth? Yes, but it a takes a conscious effort.

The difference between a dimocrap and a normal human is -- We KNOW when we're lying.

dimocrap scum honestly don't. They really don't.

And no, I am honestly not being sardonic. dimocraps lie like you and I breath air.

It's the #1 reason I hate them. Not their politics. Not their zany idea. Not that they're the opposition.

I hate dimocraps because they're lying scum. Every.Last.One.Of.Them.

Is Texas Economy Really Better Than California s

Yet there’s also the question of what kind of economy you want to create. Texas’ job creation machine has performed amazingly well. But it’s been criticized for creating low-paying jobs. And Texas’ most successful job creation machine, Austin, is the most California-like city in the state, a place that embraces California creativity and weirdness so enthusiastically that the rest of the state routinely rejects it as being profoundly un-Texan.

Through it all, California has managed to maintain a big lead in certain high-growth, high-performing sectors, principally technology and entertainment.

In other words, Texas isn’t doing as well as you might think and California isn’t doing as badly as you might think.

---------------------------------------

This is the problem these ignorant right wingers refuse to see. Lots of low paying jobs with no benefits are being created in Texas and the defunding of public schools ensures that is all that will be available for the average Texan. The better paying and skill requirement jobs are going to those coming from out of state and immigrants. I'm pretty sure that's NOT what most Texans had in mind. Or is it?

Hahahaaa....Oil Patch is the backbone of the Texas economy and has been in Texas since Spindletop gushed in 1901. Perry came along a whole lot later.

But if we follow your logic, then Obama's a success too. The current unemployment rate is half of what it was when he took office.

Moron.

The cost of living in California is 45% higher than it is in Texas.

A house in a Metropolitan area of Kalifornication will cost you in the range $500 to $600k MINIMUM for a decent place.

In a Metropolitan are of Texas, the average is around $200k.

It doesn't stop there...... If you buy a home, not only are Property Taxes double the millage rates of Texas, but the assessed value is at least double.

And let's not forget -- Texas has no Income Tax. California's is -- What? Well, let's take a look

California Income Tax Brackets 2015

For earnings between $49,774.00 and $254,250, you'll pay 9.30% plus $2,191.48

What if you're a little more successful?

For earnings between $254,250.00 and $305,100, you'll pay 10.30% plus $21,207.75

dimocraps are the scum of the earth. Everything they touch they turn to shit. Everything.

They took THE most beautiful place on earth and are turning it into a pushole filled with illegals, crime, gangs and taxes so high that even the uber-wealthy are moving out in droves.

That's because Christie has a Democrat Legislature and all they want to do is raise taxes rather than put in implemental fiscal reforms that brings its budgetary condition into structural alignment.
In other words they refuse to cut back their State Government.

People are SO sick of dimocrap scum Governors, that The Peoples Republic of Massachusetts elected a Republican.

Folks, when that happens...... When the #1 socialist State in the Country goes for a Republican, you know the tides are changing.

Been a nice run, dimocrap scum. Now go die somewhere else. Don't stink up the neighborhood. You're toast. Yesterday's breakfast. I hear Greece is nice this time of year. Help them out.

This Country tried your BULLSHIT and they're moving on.

since Brown has taken over UE has dropped 4 points....at least in the wealthy Counties....and it has gone down a point or 2 in the rest of the State....Brown aint as bad as many people make him out to be.....he does not spend like the Democrats in the legislature would like him too....he has many good points and some bad points....

Pretty good OP, rdean . However, I think your thread would be more effective if you remove "GOP" and make it open to all 50 Governors. Plus, exactly how do we want to measure this? Lots of mitigating factors, here. And for every factoid we bring, someone somewhere will scream that it is wrong. Considering the terrible mess that Kansas is in, Brownback should go on that list as well. But I am quite sure we will find a "blue" state or two that is not doing well, either.

Actually, I am getting very tired of the designations of "blue" and "red". The larger swath nation is more purple than either side really wants to admit.

Let's get members of all persuasions to help make a list of criteria first and then turn this into a serious thread about accomplishments and failures. And yes, Education should be at the top of the pile. I give it a 6% chance that this will happen.

its dean Stats....he would never think of saying something against the democrats.....his head would start hurting if he did.....thats how implants work....

 

[peach174]

More and more people are moving out of Blue States because they can't afford to live there.
Yet they move into the Red States and continue to vote for the Dems that caused them to move from Blue State the fist place.
People who continue to vote for Dem's after they have moved from a Dem State don't seem to have the ability to be logical.
