More Governors Like This

New Mexico governor Martinez NM gover shoots a 100 on her carry permit requalification:
Gov. Susana Martinez received perfect scores on recertification for her concealed-carry permit over the weekend in Las Cruces. She scored 100 percent with both .38- and .45-caliber handguns, her staff said.
It is, of course, serious business for Martinez:
She was a district attorney and a Republican candidate for governor when she first went through training and qualified to carry a concealed weapon. Her spokesman, Greg Blair, said Martinez’s personal and professional experiences motivated her to arm herself.
I’m not sure if this is her re-qual (the video says it is)…
…but it’s 11 hits for 14 shots in a quick fire drill, which ain’t chicken feed.

Speaking of New Mexico governors, Gary Johnson is running for the Republican nomination for President. Of course, if all you read is the StarTrib, NYT, WaPo, and the MSM TV outlets, you might not know anything about him. Sadly , his own party isn’t giving him much of a chance either, evidenced by his exclusion from the upcoming GOP candidates debate. I mean, Newt Gingrich will be there, for cripes sake. I guess Ron Paul is supposed to be the token libertarian. SITD readers, read all about him if you don’t know: http://reason.com/blog/2011/08/30/presidential-candidate-gov-gar
