I think Richardson would be a fine VP...but a lousy VP candidate.

I don't think he has an attack dog mentality. I don't think he is a particularly good debater.

I think it is his passion to negotiate....and make peace. Those are fine attribute for a VP....but neither Leiberman or Edwards were fiesty enough and I think we need someone who is stronger during the campaign. Having said that Edwards has been feisty enough this season I am just not sure he brings much to the ticket electorally
