I was living in Austin at the time Anne Richards was governor
For the life of me I can't remember her doing anything much more memorable than making the clever comment: "poor George Bush, he was born with a silver foot in his mouth." True enough, but Richards isn't really remembered for much more than that, besides her battle with the bottle. This ad sounds like a real non-happener. Funny how people outside of Texas seem to think Richards was some kind of legend. To most of us she was the woman who beat Clayton Williams for the governor's office, and nobody but the crudest redneck could have voted for Williams. I voted for Richards because she was really the only alternative.
