Default So who else besides some of our more astute posters just figured out that

Obama's running mate will be Richardson?

If he announced that before the Texas primary he may even win that state.

There is no way Obama will pick Richardson. Richardson is way too gaffe prone.

Wow. Gotta think that Huckabee would look good in comparison. The guy reminds me of the absent-minded professor.

Religion rises inevitably from our apprehension of our own death. To give meaning to meaninglessness is the endless quest of all religion.

Of all religions that I know, the one that most vehemently and persuasively defies and denies the reality of death is the original Mormonism of the Prophet, Seer and Revelator, Joseph Smith.

Richardson is beloved in New Mexico. And he has a neat beard. What is not to love.

The common joke when I was in NM was:
"Hey, I saw Bill Richardson the other day."

Dude has been running for VP for years.

I don't think so. He would have been a good choice, but for the fact that he was so disappointing in the campaign this year.

I really think Obama will pick a Virginian. One of Tim Kaine, Mark Warner (my favorite of the bunch) or Jim Webb (who brings national security credentials to counter McCain's strength in that area).

Jim Webb would be a great pick.

Richardson would be a good pick. He's a Latino that looks white, running with Obama who's black but isn't too black.
