I thought Richardson's endorsement "isn't signifigant." If so, why is Carville running to call him "traitor?" Wait.

Clinton recognized his "talent", but his being appointed was an "affirmative action leg up"? Whuh-hut?? Second, because Clinton once appointed Richardson, Richardson is now obligated to always support Clinton? Is that what you are really saying? Richardson is not allowed to use his own judgment to endorse who he sees as the best candidate. He must endorse Clinton no matter what? 'S funny. Requiring a loyalty oath seemed more the kind of thing the Republicans would do. (Not that Clinton's tactics aren't seeming more Repugnant every day.)

I remember the not so distant past when Afro-A's valued Bill for his inclusiveness. Richardson should have just stayed the hell out of it. Carville nailed it and I'm glad he refused to retract anything he said.

Obama supporter says something maybe she shouldn't have - "off the record", gets fired THE NEXT DAY, and apologizes. Two Hillary supporters say something stupid, nobody says anything for a week, and THEY'RE NOT SORRY THEY SAID IT. Okay, so let’s check the scoreboard.

But we're going to be stuck with him, because he's "entertaining" and "provocative" and "edgy." Gag. Carville’s been an embarrassment since he first came to national prominence.
