Ann Richards left us on this day in 2006. She was 73. The 46th governor of Texas (1991-1995) was the last populist governor of the state. A wisecracking self-admitted recovering alcoholic who hunted and bought herself her first Harley at the age of 60, Richards spoke her mind, and usually with a hell of a lot of wit. We're hoping Kinky will turn out to be half the woman Richards was. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ann_Richards
