Richardson: Clinton aides in the 'gutter'
UPI ^ | March 23, 2008

WASHINGTON, March 23 (UPI) -- New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson said Sunday aides to U.S. Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., use "gutter" politics to get their way.

The former candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination was compared by one Clinton adviser to Judas this week following his voiced support of Clinton's rival, U.S. Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., The Washington Post reported.

"I'm not going to get in the gutter like that," Richardson said of the comments from informal Clinton adviser James Carville. "And you know, that's typical of many of the people around Senator Clinton. They think they have a sense of entitlement to the presidency."

Richardson has been critical of the ongoing fight for the Democratic nomination, but his scorn of such tactics has primarily been aimed at Clinton's camp.

"The campaign has gotten too negative," he said of the electoral battle.

"I just feel the time has come to come together behind a candidate."

I do not think that it was bad for former President Clinton to say that American needs a President and a vice President that loves this country, for we really do need that. I do not feel that the USA is an object for affection of Baraq (flying donkey of Muhammad, with a face of a woman and a tail of a peacock)Hussein Obama. The only thing that I have detected about Obama is that he surrounds himself with evil people. Otherwise, he is just an empty suit.

Well, he’s right about the Clintons, but he’s in the gutter too for endorsing a man who has a close 20 year relationship with a racist bigot America-hating pastor.

Richardson should know — he spent his entire political career whoring in the same gutter with these same folks....

Now - Richardson has himself a new “Pimp Daddy” and getting ready to “Ride Dirty”.......

Richardson has probably killed his political future and he knows it. He broke hard with his former promoters - Clintons. So, he no longer exists for half of Dem party. Obama camp is also not happy since Richardson used their low fortunes to extract VP slot. In a very unlikely case that Obama wins Presidency, Richardson will be gradually kept a figurehead with no chance of becoming A President. If Obama loses the Presidency, Richardson is gone, he will have no good will anywhere.

I never saw an endorsement where an endorser was so tense and an endorsee - so “let's get it over with”.

Funny how he never noticed this during the entire decade of the 1990s when the Clinton crime family was laying waste to anybody who had the temerity to public disagree with them or question their methods. And heaven forbid a woman actually admit that her affair with Boy Clinton WAS true and have the ‘gutter politics’ people turn her into a nut or a slut or just kill her cat and flatten her tires.

Nice to see you’ve waken up Mr Richardson. But now you appear to be entering LA LA Land where chocolate bunnies dance with unicorns and marshmallow butterflies fill the skies..... Enjoy your freefall back to reality in November.

Obama is as much a con man as his associates. He just gussies it up for the populace.

Obama kept his arms crossed during Ricardo’s speech. Have never seen him do that before. Wonder what it means?
