Not that he ever had much of a chance in the first place.

Edit: This was reported on the local Albuquerque News a few minutes ago.

11. Then it has to be Biden

If O is looking for someone with foreign policy cred, he can't do much better than Richardson or Biden.

12. We're not sure that Obama is looking for someone with foreign policy cred --

it's the media that has told us that's what he should be looking for (although I agree with them).

13. Aw, I like Richardson...

Hopefully he'll get a great job in the Obama administration, if he wants it! :)

[Robeson]

14. He was always my first choice. Oh, well...

...we still have many qualified individuals...:thumbsup:

[Whisp]

18. oneof my faves too. But there are good spots for this guy in Obama's admin.

I'm sure he will shine.

[book_worm]
