The nation's governors skipped the Academy Awards on Sunday night to attend a red-carpet event of their own: a State Dinner at the White House.
I'll resist the temptation to conduct a Joan Rivers-style critique and let you judge for yourselves. I must say, however, that Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius would have fit in just as well at the Oscars in that lovely sky-blue number.

Written and compiled by staff writers and editors, GOVERNING View is an on-the-ground, and sometimes behind-the-scenes, look at the topics we're covering in print and online. From notes on what's up in statehouses, county courthouses and city halls, to encounters with people, places and things, GOVERNING View is a window into the side of state and local government you don't always see.
