read your own comments, I never said that YOU said Richardson was a progressive. Never. I asked *myself* the question, "is he really a progressive?" You have this knee jerk reaction to look for a negative jumping off point to tear into someone and it doesn't even have a basis. Repeat, I never said that you, mole333, or anyone else on this site, said Bill Richardson is progressive. Since you are a progressive, and he appeals to you, I might wonder if that is your conclusion (that he is a progressive) so I asked the question, but I stated nothing as a fact. So you need to read posts more carefully before posting too.

Why don't you start looking at the merits of people's posts rather than nitpicking for shortcomings. I brought up some good discussion points about Richardson and all you want to do is nitpick so you can flame. Sheesh!
