For the last couple of weeks as New Mexico governor and publicity hound Billy (The Scuzzball) Richardson's term wound down toward midnight December 31, the nation hung on every press release as he considered a pardon for Henry (Billy the Kid) McCarty .
Early on the morning of the last day of his term, The Scuzzball went on Good Morning America to announce his decision -- drum roll please! -- to NOT do it.
All in all, his ploy reminds me of the escape scene in Blazing Saddles. Something like "Next man makes a move to ignore me and the Governor GETS it...."
