Miller's appearance also became a political issue, as there were still memories of the tartan-jacket incident of two years earlier. In February, 1985, Miller announced his first cabinet with a record 33 members including 7 Ministers without portfolio. The size of the cabinet belied Miller's rhetoric of a lean, efficient government. David Peterson called it the "fattest, most bloated Cabinet in the history of this province".

Her approach to standup has been noted for its heavy use of persona, which largely relies on costumes and "an air of mock-refinement and elitism."

Maggie Lange of GQ noted: > All performers have a character to some extent, but Leggero is one of the > few with a costume. She’s like a wolf in sheep’s clothing, but like a > seasoned comedian in socialite’s clothing. She’s always been this way.

Louis Stich, Corrientes: the Issues from 1856–80, The Collectors Club, New York, 1957. For much of the 19th and 20th centuries, politics in Corrientes were dominated by the Romero Feris family, prominent local landowners who still control most of the province's tobacco output. During most of this time, the Romero Ferises created one of Argentina's most bloated government payrolls (over 10% of total employment) and suppressed dissent and efforts at even modest land reform. Following contentious election results in 1991, however, public protest forced President Carlos Menem to remove Governor Raúl "Tato" Romero Feris from office and, though he was elected mayor of the province's capital in 1997, Romero Feris was ultimately indicted for embezzlement of public funds in 1999.
