What To Make of This????

Here's a stumper.  What politician said this:
"There should be a tax revolt in the state of _____ (I don't want to give it away!). We're the most inefficient state in the country.  We have more government per person than we need.  You would never manage a business the way we manage our government - we have overlapping provision of services and, in my opinion, it's insane."
?????
Ron Paul?  Sorry.  Mark Sanford?  Whahhh!   Rick Perry? Mitt Romney?  Survey says, "XX"!!!!
OK, let me give a hint.  What DEMOCRAT politician said this?
Heath Schuler?  Phil Bredesen?   Pashaw!
OK, what northeastern Democrat said it?
John Baldacci (Maine)?  Gillibrand??  Puhlease.
OK, last hint, what black northeastern Democrat  said this?
Still stumped?  Here is your answer.  It wouldn't have been so hard if you have been a NBfPB reader since, well, 2006.
If you are inclined to be cynical and think that all politicians are deeply flawed, calculating, self promoting careerists, then this tidbit would lead you to think that there is at least one politician that is correctly reading the Tea Party tea leaves and is getting on the bandwagon rather than spewing bile on these concerned citizens.  Is this a barometer of local pols "getting it" while national pols remain laughably clueless?
