I can't stand Bill Richardson.

1: He's not very smart.

and

2: He's kind of unctuous.

and

3: He should stop dying his hair. He looks ridiculous.

I don't care for him either. I guess this is the most harmless of the positions they could have given him.

CNN just reported that Richardson is disappointed that he didn't get SOS.

Chris Matthews/MSNBC just said he was calling the four people Obama has picked as the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

Smooth and greasy? Hmm. Wonder what makes you say that?

As for not being 'very smart'...well, Masters from Tufts in International Relations. Congressman. Governor. Secretary of Energy. US Ambassador to the UN. Nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize.

What do you really mean?

Yes, he's punched his ticket in the correct places, and I think it's kind of wierd, most of the democrats running for President are now somewhere in Obama's cabinet....

"Punching his ticket"- I think that makes him pretty qualified.
