Martinez donates $20K because of Texan's rape joke (7:08 a.m.)

Republican gubernatorial candidate Susana Martinez is giving a Las Cruces rape crisis center the campaign contributions received from a company founded by Texas oilman Clayton Williams, who once said victims of rape should "relax and enjoy it." Martinez, a district attorney in Las Cruces, is running against Democrat Diane Denish.

[Gotcha]

That was Clayton Williams when he ran against Ann Richards about a million years ago for Governor of Texas! I know she's dead, and he has to be 90 now! Talk about a dinosaur of a story!

[Looking up]

I like this candidate...more everyday. I appreciate her sensitivity to this issue. I thought it was interesting during the primaries when the news 'broke' that she was receiving contributions from oil companies. Chase Oil in Artesia was mentioned specifically...little did the Democrats know that that would help her, not hurt her. Anyone who knows Mack Chase (and the Chase family) knows what a fantastic person he is and that cinched my vote for her. I expect it did so for a lot of people.

susana is our best candidate for governor and she will be our next governor for 8 yrs, ill vote for her in 4 more years, she is the best of the best, and as for diane denish the best thing for her to do is pack up and get out of dodge along with x governor bill richardson on jan 1 2011.
