#2 Richardson is preparing to turn over the reins of state government to Republican Susana Martinez, along with a roughly $300-million budget deficit and near-record unemployment.

Thanks, Bill. Enjoy the talk show circuit...

#5 Lew Wallace, Civil War General and novelist, served as governor of the territory of New Mexico between 1878-1881.
He had a few things to say about running the place in letters to his wife:
All calculations based on our experiences elsewhere fail in New Mexico.
And he predicted this fate for his replacement:
`Of course, he will do just as I did, have the same ideas, make the same attempts, and with the same heartiness of effort, soon cool in zeal, then finally say, `All right, let her drift.
