Gee, Obama must have done something recently that impressed Governor Richardson. Wonder what that could have been?
(CNN) -- Gov. Bill Richardson of New Mexico plans to endorse Sen. Barack Obama in the Democratic race for president Friday, an Obama campaign spokesperson told CNN.
Richardson plans to join Obama at a rally in Portland, Oregon, at 12:30 p.m. Friday.
In an e-mail to supporters, Richardson said Obama will be a "historic and a great President, who can bring us the change we so desperately need by bringing us together as a nation here at home and with our allies abroad."
Richardson also said in the e-mail that he was touched by Obama's recent speech on race in America, saying he "understands clearly that only by bringing people together, only by bridging our differences can we all succeed together as Americans."
My money is on Sen Webb of Virginia. I agree that it will have to be a military man, but Wes Clark is too far in the Clinton campaign. Webb was Sec of Navy under Reagan which works in 2 ways. 1 shows Obama will work with Reagan conservatives and 2 he out ranks McCain in Navy (also did not allow himself to be captured while earning the Navy Cross, Silver Star and 2 Bronze Stars)
Plus Webb gave a kick ass response to Bush's 2007 SOTU. This is my dream.
