Guvernör Bill Richardson strular till det i sina Obama-ambitioner

Guvernör Bill Richardson från New Mexico, som gärna sett sig själv som Obamas running-mate, sumpade nog sin chans när han på ABC News gjorde ett väldigt ogenomtänkt uttalande som beskrivs i en artikel från Real Clear Politics så här:

On ABC's "This Week," Richardson, auditioning to be Barack Obama's running mate, disqualified himself. Clinging to the Obama campaign's talking points like a drunk to a lamppost, Richardson said this crisis proves the wisdom of Obama's zest for diplomacy, and that America should get the U.N. Security Council "to pass a strong resolution getting the Russians to show some restraint." Apparently Richardson was ambassador to the U.N. for 19 months without noticing that Russia has a Security Council veto.
