Well, if he’s going by weight, he’s gotta go with Richardson.

Mr. Petitfour says: “Brings to mind the feller on the tarmac, waving the lights for the jumbo to stop atop the scales.”

I think that Richardson weighs more than Clinton...

Hope he has a scale big enough for that.

I don’t know. You can’t mis-underestimate those thighs.

Richardson has been panting like a puppy longing for a pet from the one; Ms Clinton is smarter than taking a dead end job.

Each one of those log legs has gotta be 100 lbs. or so.

If it’s between these two I would hope he picks Clinton. I think Richardson is just a total empty suit.

I think this is interesting; there is no love between The Clintons and Richardson since he signed on with The O, instead of the C. He WANTS the job, I have no doubt about it, and I’m still ticked at how he interjected himself with the North Korean’s as soon as Bush became President... I wonder if this is a way to make Hillary take it so Richardson can’t have what he really, really wants... I’m sure there is a game at play here.

I don't know, Hillary looked like she was gaining on him, so to speak, in the moomoo dress she was wearing in the photo that was on Drudge yesterday, today they clipped the photo a little tighter to not show the full shot.

Obama’s first “weighty” decision.
Who would have thunk?
To: RichInOC
But maybe Odumbo wants the lightweight of the two—??

I hadn't noticed that Obama's voice sounded like Kermit the Frog before.
Watched a little bit of the Gwen Ifill show on PBS this evening...she was happy to announce that we've seen the last of Obama being called "Obambi."
To: petitfour
SeeBS must have mis-heard the rumor. Hillary, I believe, IS being considered for a cabinet position...Secretary of Plates...with responsibility for selecting, maintaining & keeping secure from pilfering the White House china...
Or, perhaps, in charge of the White House Travel Office...Secretary of Dates...
Something like that...
