A governor is the head of the state government, which means he signs state-level bills into law and forms a budget for each year he or she is in power.  A governor also spends a lot of time performing ceremonies like ribbon cuttings on new businesses or groundbreakings on new factories.\n\nA governor also delivers a lot of speeches on behalf of local representatives running for election or re-election.  A governor usually wants to work with a senate and house that is primarily from the same political party he or she belongs to.  The governor usually doesn't spend a lot of time in the actual senate or house chambers, but the lieutenant governor may preside over the sessions.  In many states, the governor and lieutenant governor are elected separately, so they might not even agree on proposed laws or ideas for the state's future.\n\nSome governors go on to run for president of the United States because they know how to run a large government and aren't worried about losing their seat in the Senate or House if they lose the election.

Government regulation involves the use of the law, mandated by the state, to produce outcomes which might not otherwise occur, prevent outcomes which might otherwise occur, produce or prevent outcomes in different places to what might otherwise occur, or produce or prevent outcomes in different timescales than would otherwise occur. Regulations rarely produce complete outcomes or prevent outcomes completely but they generally do modify what would otherwise take place.

it was the largest federal government expansion in american history. it gave more power to the executive branch of government. The states were not able to successfully get out of the depression, so they gave up some of their state rights in order for the federal government to help them. This gave the federal government much more power in which to start new programs and agencies. (ie: social security) I'd say it was successful at the time, but many of the programs now are not effective or are outdated.

It definitely means you succeeded.  I mean the goal was to fail.  So if you've accomplished that goal then you have in turn succeeded at failing.
