1. I dunno, but they better be ready for mass UNSUBSCRIPTIONS from their mailing list if they

2. I think Dodd endorse HRC.
Dodd may have done the same, but I'm not sure. Richardson, AFAIK, is staying neutral.

3. Richardson has strong ties and debts to both Ted Kennedy and Bill Clinton.
But it was announced that Bill and Bill will be watching the Super Bowl together.
Kennedy helped Richardson very early way back when he ran for congress the first time, flew out to do personal appearences, if I remember right.

5. Richardson seems to me like the guy who won't pick sides
He doesn't want to step on anybody's feet.

6. He won't be 'played' either, you won't get his endorsement by telling him he's on the 'short list'
He's too savvy for that old one.

4. None of them has endorsed at this point.
Unless some deal is cut with one of the candidates, I'm thinking they probably won't. They'll have to work with the next Prez, so no need to piss either of them off, right?

8. Exactly...
and I think all these endorsements are so overrated anyway. I also think it's not politically prudent to put your name on the line, when you really don't know what will become of that person.

I think most of us have been there. Recommend someone for a job, then they end up being slackers, late for work, don't do their work, don't show up, etc. I learned in my 20's to never recommend anyone for a job....
