Bill Richardson has endorsed Barack Obama. As it’s very clear that Richardson is hoping to get the Veep nod, the endorsement strike me as highly significant. Hillary has tried to slough it off, but I believe that this is the harbinger of more superdelegates moving into the Obama column, particularly in recognition of the fact that it is a mathematical impossibility for Hillary to pass Obama in the delegate count. And while there’s been plenty of talk about Obama-Clinton or Clinton-Obama being the dream ticket, why should Obama saddle himself with Clinton’s baggage (not that she’d accept the offer). Obama-Richardson: Now there’s a true dream ticket.
