The New Mexico paradigm
OK, this is sticky but may become true very soon.

Richardson understands that fraud took place in New Mexico. It would be a scandal exploited and distorted by the "rethugs" but good because will illustrate BEYOND DOUBT that the "election" was invalid.

Does he knows that his future political career would be over?

You think Richardson will sacrifice it for the "common good"?

3. Well, sure...
That's why he is stonewalling the process of asking for a fair count.

But I want to clarify Richardson's "character" for the crowd who doesn't know him.

2. Richardson is a good man.
Richardson under Clinton held meetings w/ the N. Koreans and let them
harangue for a couple of days and then finally asking them, "O.K. how much rice
do you need?" And then they stopped their nuclear weapons programs for another
year. Bush stopped the meetings and what do we have now?

5. Plausible.
So how could he be taken off the hook (and still get the recount)?
That would be the strategy to adopt.

11. I was thinking in terms of the people doing the litigation, etc.
Maybe there is a legal way to get Richardson off the hook
and have a partial recount.

Richardson's behavior is indicative of something.

9. Richardson 'in on' the rigging scheme?
Certainly possible.
Of course I am of the opinion that the party is infiltrated with Dem turncoats.
Isn't he also DLC?

13. I think he thinks documenting fraud there would tarnish his image
And I think he has higher ambitions. He doesn't appear to be doing what I think is best for America, which is exposing the widespread fraud and minority suppression and dirty tricks that occurred there.
Though he wasn't involved in them likely, he seems to think he should have been able to prevent them. I think the Sec. of State (a Dem) there is very bad.
