And there's talk that outgoing New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson may be off to North Korea next week for a private chat with top officials at the invitation of key people in the nuclear crowd over there.
...
We're hearing Richardson has signed up with the Washington Speakers Bureau, which will probably enable him to put some fine bread on the table. In addition, he's going to set up a center in Santa Fe to focus on ways to rescue people being held hostage by bad guys and on initiating dialogue with rogue regimes.

If there’s any justice in the world, our illustrious soon-to-be ex-Guv may NEED to be getting out of the country as soon as the Grand Jury gets empanelled...
Last I heard, NK doesn’t have an extradition agreement with US.....
As a resident of New Mexico, I hope ole Bill stays...
This character helped clinton sell the store to China. More treason is all we can expect from rats.
Gee why doesn't Richardson just go to Washington DC. Captain Zero said he was not going to negotiate with republican hostage takers. Maybe Billy boy could help out the bamster.
I keep hoping that one of these leftist do gooders will be arrested by the “compassionates” they visit.
Do people actually want to pay him to make speeches?
I think if given a dull spoon and a dimly lighted room, James Carville would slice up this bunch like a cajun samurai on an overdose of ritalin.
As for Albright the baggage handler, she can stay home.
Richardson is being the bagman here.
He’s too busy padding his 1st hispanic POTUS wannabe resume for that. Throw this fat democRAT POS in jail already along with Crooked Charley Rangel and Mad Max(ine) Waters too. They are criminals.
They may be good news in this. As bad as he has messed up New Mexico maybe he can do the same with NK. That would be good.
What I would like to know is if there is a way we can keep him from returning!
In my opinion, he is a bag man. He carries millions in suit cases like he did for clinton. He is as slimy as they come and the ill Il loves the bottom feeder.
Bill dusting off his presidential aspirations as he sees zer0 crashing and hilda beast (again) covered in mud of her own doing.
Hallalujah! Send the sucker’s moving van invoice to me. I will make an donation and/or contribution to shipping the stinking sucker back to his home land!
I assumed he was trying to turn New Mexico into North Korea.
He needs to get his next job laying track for his railroad....12 hours a day...easy money
I guess he has a leftover briefcase full of cash from the Clinton regime?
NM Ping.
Richardson is a pol who knows nothing worth repeating about nuclear energy.
The notion that he is invited because of any expertise is therefore laughable.
The North Koreans have no discretionary hard currency money to finance these kinds of boondoggles-- in fact, they regularly milk visitors and trade delegations for hard currency.
None of this is news to anyone in the know in DC or Beijing, or several dozen national capital cities in between.
So this story is mostly superfluous spin, and the question the Washington Post fails to ask, much less answer, is who is footing the bill for Bill, and why.
