Where would you like that knife, Hillary?
Friday, March 21, 2008 at 07:15AM New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson, a former presidential aspirant, is expected to endorse Barak Obama sometime this morning, according to CNN.
Since dropping out of the race following a dismal 
showing in New Hampshire, Richardson has made it clear that he was torn between the two candidates. While he's known the Clinton's much longer, and in fact is indebted to former President Clinton for putting him in the cabinet twice, he seemed to have bonded more with Obama while on the debate circuit. We'll have to see what his official reason is for throwing his lot to Obama at this moment, but no doubt the Clinton camp will very disappointed. If fact, they had been lobbying him so hard that President Clinton even watched the Super Bowl with Richardson at the Governor's mansion in New Mexico.
For Obama, this endorsement comes at a perfect time: it's another super delegate in his column; it takes some of the attention off the Reverend Wright stuff; and is an important sign of "institutional credibility" from the Democratic leadership. It will be interesting to see if the other uncommitted leaders like Nancy Pelsoi and Al Gore weigh in anytime soon, too.
