What about Bill Richardson


I had actually forgotten Bill Richardson was running for president. I got so caught up in the Big Three (Clinton, Obama, Edwards) promoted by the Big Media. But the NY Times's David Brooks reminded me in his column yesterday.


Then a heretical question entered my head: What if Richardson does this well at forums for the next 10 months? Is it possible to imagine him as a leading candidate for the nomination?





Neither Clinton, Nor Obama - New York Times


I saw Richardson at the YearlyKos Convention last summer, and I remember that he endorsed a strong, comprehensive energy policy which was crafted by citizens, not oil companies. Let's watch this dude and see if he can make it through the Big Ego fog of the Big Three.
