Will the diplomatic coup be followed by a regular coup?
Picture President OBammBamm walking into the Senate next March 15...
Wonderful that the 48th poorest state in America can afford it's own State Department to deal with the NORKs when America's State Dept is not up to the task!
The governor of New Mexico has an aide he can dispatch on North Korean stuff?
If Richardson isn't veep, can he be a roving diplomat? He seems to have a bipartisan rep there.
I don't think Richardson is angling for Veep. I think he's looking at Secretary of State.
Who care if he's looking for one position or another in the Obama administration? The point is: He is doing something about the state of our country now before it falls totally apart.

A diplomatic coup to impress Obama? It might work.
