The voice of K.I.T.T., the voice of New Mexico?
The 2010 New Mexico gubernatorial race just got a little bit zanier. Maybe. With embattled governor Bill Richardson set to vacate his post after reaching the end of his two-term limit, actor Val Kilmer has expressed his interest in considering thinking about pondering a possible run on the Democratic ticket. Kilmer has been a resident of the state for over two decades, where he lives on a ranch. He first made rumblings about the post a few months ago, when Richardson was set to score a place on then President-elect Obama’s cabinet, and he hasn’t backed down post-inauguration. If he decides to go through with it, he’ll have to square off against current Lieutenant Governor Diane Denish, who has already announced her intention to run.
