They would see Richardson as nothing more than a UN guy (which isn't loved by many people) and certainly would not consider it more experience than McCain. There is a large difference between someone who negotiated with Hussein and someone who has been immersed in these issues for years and years and is a war hero.

I also think that Obama does need to give the appearance that the VP will have certain areas of responsibility, since many people fear he lacks the experience to deal with some of these issues. His potential naivety will be a highlight of the gop campaign. You want it front and center that there is someone there who can take handle these issues.
