	<abstract><![CDATA[<p>A recent press release from <a href="http://www.vote-smart.org">Project Vote Smart</a>, a national research organization caught my eye because it was titled <strong>"New Mexico candidates stonewall public on basic issue positions." </strong></p>

<p>That's one way of looking at it.</p>

<p>PVS' site is worth checking out. It includes lots of candidate bios, campaign finance data, public statements, voting records etc. It was founded by a variety of past and present officials, including Jimmy Carter, Gerald Ford, John McCain, Geraldine Ferraro, Newt Gingrich and more. </p>]]></abstract>
