| Richardson claims first place among second-tier candidates |
| 2007-03-01 |
| New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson said yesterday that he is “alone” on the second tier of Democratic presidential candidates, claiming a solid lead over his closest rivals — Sens. Joseph Biden (Del.) and Chris Dodd (Conn.). “We’ve moved into a solid fourth,” Richardson told reporters. Speaking at the Latino Leaders Luncheon Series, Richardson told the crowd he had moved from registering 1 percent in polls up to 8 percent since getting in the race in late January, putting him in fourth place in the contest, behind Sens. Hillary Rodham Clinton (N.Y.), Barack Obama (Ill.) and ex-Sen. John Edwards (N.C.). |

| #3 The best part about this whole election is knowing that Hillary probably will not get the Democratic nomination. I'm savoring the sheer delight of knowing that whoever is "lucky" enough to get it in her stead will become the object of all her charms. A fitting dilemma for the current crop of democrats, is it not? Heh, Heh. A scorned Hillary. Whew! Even if Satan himself wanted the nomination, I'm sure he give pause before getting into the ring with her. |

| #1 For as long as he can hold back at the second tier, the longer his record can avoid examination. Wen Ho Lee witch hunt, directing state offices not to expose illegals burdening the education and welfare system [in one of the poorest states in the union], rife corruption in state party system, floating the state's budget on huge profits from generations of investments in 'Big Oil' while criticizing same said companies [a whiff of Gore there], etc. |
