When There is a Tough Job, You Send in the Marines
Share
Even in New Hampshire it can be a tough job to get a few minutes to speak with the candidates. It is a lot tougher to get those few moments on tape.
But when there is a tough job, you send in the marines, and that is just what Michael Castaldo did this weekend on behalf of the poorest people in the world.

Governor Richardson is a tough man - and he is by far the most experienced and aware candidate when it comes to the problems of world poverty. When you look for a candidate who has both the vision and the ability to move the international agenda, Richardson is the one.
It is annoying that because he lacks the big wallets and media budgets of the other candidates, he has not (yet) gotten the attention that he deserves. Not only is he the most experienced, and the one with the most clearly defined (and best, IMHO) position statements, but he is the most electable, no matter what isolationist the Republican Party nominates.
