2008: Hillary and Bill (Richardson)
James Carville wrote a great rah-rah piece in the Washington Post about how Hillary can win in 2008. He makes the point that Bush won over Kerry in 2004 due partially to a nine-point shift among Hispanic voters.
Which leads me to my Hillary-Bill Richardson thesis. If Clinton were to choose Bill Richardson as her running mate, those nine points would swing back to the Democrats. Not only is Richardson Hispanic, he’s got serious foreign policy chops, he’s well-spoken, grounded, and telegenic.
Clinton-Richardson, 2008. Yup, that sounds really good.
