Richardson: Obama could boost Hispanic vote

True, I can't dispute that, it's the truth. What's amusing(?) here is the BIG changes that Obama says he plans to do and telling the people to vote for him if they want change. At least McCain hasn't made any outlasdish promises that will never be kept (for the most part).

Why is there a US Hispanic Leaders conference in another country??
Richardson is sure working hard to go to Washington DC.
When is he going to be doing the business of New Mexico and not Bill Richardson

. The question is, why did we elect him a second time?
I was voting for Obama until Pork Barrel Bill joined the party. It's a shame when a democrat has to vote against his party, heck maybe one day the dem. party will tune back in to main stream America and we won't have to(Yea Right!!!).

no hispanic vote here for obama if he has richardson on ticket.

Whoever Richardson endorses as far as I am concerned, does not get my vote.

I don't follow the Fuhrer

aint life grand?..Hillary is finished..all is well...

And he is right, he will need the People

Why would any hispanic accept any type of political advice from some one by the last name of "Richardson"?

I hate hillary.
I wanted to see her cry and beg for the VP spot.
Obama and Hillary met behind close doors for 2 hours.
I bet she was begging for the vp spot then.
Wished I could have seen it.

It would be the same type of meeting between Richardson and Obama.

Obam needs to pick Pelosi for VP....that would send Hillary completly over the edge!...sweet!

And that would be a good thing because it would guarantee a McCain win.

I supported Hillary Clinton - a much smarter and better person than either of our current candidates. People are so threatened by strong women. As far a the Hispanic vote and Richardson, if Obama panders to illegals and racist Hispanics, he will not get my vote. We now have a choice between an unknown, untried (Obama) and McCain (part of the current problem who divorced his wife for a trophy wife). I really don't much care about their personal lives. All I really know about Obama is that he is a terrific public speaker. Would I rather deal with the devil I know than be very unpleasantly surprised with an unknown? By that I don't mean stupid issues (Reverend Wright, religion, race, etc.)that have been raised that I consider beneath notice. I am interested in taxes, health care (not government run), the economy, women's economic issues (equal pay for equal work, small business protection, etc.) honorable end of the Iraq fiasco, terrorism, IMMIGRATION, etc. I am very afraid that Obama considers anyone who earns more than $70,000 a year rich and fair game. The extremely wealthy will not pay taxes and the rest of us (professionals and small business owners - the place where women don't have to worry about the glass ceiling) will suffer even more.

What figures? It's about time, but as usual, a day late and a dollar short. Maybe a lot more citizens would have had jobs if Florida hadn't been inundated with illegals over the past several years.

Wish they had posted jobs available along with the long article because there are plenty unemployed people in Central Florida who could use a paycheck.

On, because Hillary only cares about one thing....... Hillary. She is a power hog and would cry and beg for power.

Richardson would not cry and beg for power.

You're right. Obama is promising everything but the kitchen sink. Wonder how he plans to pay for all this basket of goodies? McCain tries to be realistic and a lot of people don't want to hear that because it sounds too depressing compared to the HOPE that Obama is selling. Only thing is, we need good old fashioned sensible government, not some pie-in-the-sky hope for change that is going to leave our grandchildren and great-grandchildren paying for this snake oil.

It figures because the locals had to step in to do the feds job. Now if we can get some of our local NM whiners to get off their backside and do their jobs as well.

your statement was quite possibly the greatest display if drivel I have seen in years...Hillary was not qualified to be a senator of a state she never lived in, never mind a presidential candidate...in addition the very idea that the wife of an IMPEACHED president was even allowed to run for office is ridiculous..the good people of America refused to fooled by the Clinton Crime family again.
