Come on people. We cut this bozo way too much slack. He was a bagman for Clinton. Clinton sent him over to North Korea to bribe them to hide there nuke productuion until Clinton got out of office. He delivered actual suit cases of freshly printed money Kim EL jung. A total of $360,000,000 of your money went right to plutonium production.
But the most pathetically slimmy thing he did was meet Monica Lewinsky at the Watergate hotel and offer her a job to keep her mouth shut on Bill. Actually happened. Vernon Jordan was a witness to this witness tampering and try that during an investigation in your home town and hopefully you can take your favorite tooth bruch to jail with you. Richardson is a sruz bag of the lowest order.
Watch out for this guy. He's going to tout his foreign affairs experience, but we don't need someone who relies on friendly discussions at this point. We're past that with Iran, which actually wants a nuclear shooting match so that the Twelfth Imam can appear. Richardson is dangerous, in spite of the two issues on which he is attractive to conservatives: guns and border control.
