That glorious Bill Richardson, the Governor of New Mexico -- and the man this blog initially supported for President -- is a part of the biggest story in the domestic political news cycle. Bill Clinton yesterday claimed that Richardson promised that he would not endorse Obama. Clinton, according to observers, got red in the face, saying Richardson promised him "five times," apparently to his face. Now, From CNN:
"New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson sharply disputed that he made any promises to Bill Clinton about presidential endorsements, as Clinton reportedly has claimed.
"Gov. Bill Richardson says he never told the Clintons to expect an endorsement.
"'I never did,' Richardson said Wednesday on CNN's 'The Situation Room.' 'I never saw [President Clinton] five times. I saw him when he watched the Super Bowl with me. We made it very clear to him that he shouldn't expect an endorsement after that meeting.'"
If Obama wins the nomination, we predict that The Moment The Tide Turned will be looked back as that Richardson endorsement. Methinks that is what has got Bill Clinton's pantie in a twist.
