Where Richardson lost me.

IMHO (which is what my vote rests on), Richardson is either naieve, or pandering to AIPAC, the giant Israeli lobby that brought to us a frozen Congress while Israel bombed Lebanon for a month last summer, and a frozen Congress to the plight of the Palestinians in their walled, oppressive poverty. AIPAC also dovetails with the US Quest for oil in the mideast, meaning it is at the heart of terrorism. Whether Richardson is ignorant or pandering to the Israeli lobby, someone who doesn't understand retalliation (labeled as "terrorism"), should not nbe anywhere near the White House.

IMHO

Richardson says a lot of good things, but there are two other candidates (Kucinich and Gravel), who understand the mideast situation far better, and who will speak out against our Congress taking 1/3 of it's direction from Israeli money.
