6/12/08-  Envision a year hence...a Democtratic president, and the phrase senor Vice Presidente Richardson.  Could it be a reality?

Names are being bandied about like confetti in a cascarone, but it's just a couple of names that could rake in a Hispanic vote...Hillary Clinton or Bill Richardson.

Hispanic lawmakers are warning Obama that he could risk missing Hispanics, unless he lays it on thick: focusing on immigration, Hispanic issues, and citizenship. 

And some say the only way he can get a Hispanic vote is by selecting Clinton or Richardson as a VP.  Now a Clinton selection is unrealistic.  A Richardson selection-may be a possibility.  As Richardson served as a member of Clinton's cabinet and spent this Super Bowl Sunday with Bill Clinton... as Bill tried to collect Richardson's support.  In an almost traitorous turn of events... Richardson announced in March that he would be supporting Obama. 

A calculated VP move if I ever saw one...

Saying...
