I called VP for Richardson a long time ago, and I still see it that way. Even though I agree he would be more effective as Sec of State (who was it who said the VP job isn’t worth a bucket of warm spit?) the balance he would bring to the ticket would be immense. He strong on foreign affairs, has executive experience, beltway/cabinet experience, and would draw the hispanic voters. And, as his failed presidential campaign showed, he wouldn’t ever be able to upstage Obama. Hillary, or Sebelius, could conceivably compete for the spotlight.
