The most counter-intuitive thing I could ever say to my Presidential favorite...
Gov. Richardson, please drop out of the race...
That probably seems like a psychotic thing to say, but allow me to explain. Yesterday, the word came down that New Mexico's semi-popular Republican Senator Pete Domenici will retire at the end of his term. This creates a sterling opportunity for a Democratic pickup in a state that has been trending our way.
Who's the best candidate to take the seat? Gov. Bill Richardson.
I readily admit that in spite of Richardson's spot in the top 4 of Democratic presidential candidates, he's almost certainly not going to get the nomination. For this reason, he should maximize the good that his experience and knowledge can bring to national politics.
He should do this by dropping his Presidential bid and running for Senate...
