Ann Richards was regarded as a failure.
Only by republican mythology.
In reality she was personally responsible for making Texas a center for technology and not just oil and gas. The reason that Texas is being overrun by job -seekers even today is the mixed economy that she promoted. The governor does not have much legislative authority, but Ann showed that she could promote ideas and lobby business about the advantages of Texas and it worked. Too well some would say.
