to take this a step farther, Guiliani puts California into play for the GOP and if Hillary chooses Richardson she puts California back into her column.

That's a good point, but you have to remember Richardson is not a blatant Spanish surname, and if he has to work callyfornia by speaking Spanish everywhere he goes that could backfire.
I wonder if the average Spanish voter who would vote that way on a single issue basis actually knows that Richardson has a Hispanic background/heritage?
