[AGL] Ann Richards, R.I.P.

[Wayne Johnson]

Ann Richard's passing may mark the end of an era in Texas or National 
politics.  I never met her but always admired her wit and political acumen. 
(Sans NAFTA).  She will be missed and I am pretty sure she won't be replaced 
with anyone of similar abilities in my lifetime.  Afterall, suffrage (for 
men and women) is pretty much a lost cause in the US these days.
