New Year's Message

January 31, 2008

From Governor Richardson

Dear Friend,

As we all gaze anxiously into the promise and anticipation that comes with every New Year, Barbara and I wanted to take a moment to extend a heartfelt thank you for your support and generosity in 2007.

One of our favorite New Year’s Day traditions is to take a few moments and reflect upon the experiences of the previous year. Barbara whips up a couple mugs of steaming hot cocoa and we sit by the fireplace and reminisce for about an hour — it’s a wonderful way to remind ourselves of the lessons, both good and bad, we’ve learned over the past 365 days.

The biggest lesson I’ve learned this year is how with the help of committed activists like you, anything is possible.

And when I say anything, friend, I mean anything!

2007 was a wonderfully exciting year and we are both anxious to hit the ground running in ‘08. The Iowa caucuses and New Hampshire primary are just days away, and I know you’re as excited as we are!

From our family to yours, best wishes for a happy and healthy 2008. Let’s show the world what we can do!

Happy New Year,

Bill
