Baxley Makes 1st Campaign Promise: "I Won't Make Promises I Can't Keep."It is not as catchy as her campaign slogan but then she is the one who knows state government and the political process. See AlabamaPolitics for more.

"Lt. Gov. Lucy Baxley says there's a reason she hasn't given a lot of details concerning what she plans to do if she's elected governor — she doesn't want to make promises she can't keep." [bold added]

A lot of details, come on give me a break. Try any details. "I Love
Lucy' is not a campaign platform. I just don't see how Baxley or Moore can gain any traction with the voters by pointing to mistakes Riley
made four years ago. To invoke Reagan, "Are you better off now than you were four years ago?" I think most Alabamians would say that they were and that equals defeat for the challenger.
