El Pollo Richardson – “Disappointed” and “hurt” by turn of events
All of a sudden, the Latino activists who jeered that Richardson’s nomination was an unacceptable consolation prize are demanding that another Hispanic be appointed to the post. Bill Richardson is “disappointed” in the turn of the events but has “faith” in the process. Excited about returning to work on the state budget. Not surprisingly for a democrat, he refuses to talk about the probe or his conversations with Obama. Richardson says he “underestimated how long the criminal investigation would take.”Question: Did the transition team pressure you to withdraw or did you? Richardson unconvincingly says that he made the decision.“Yesterday, I was hurting. I lost a Cabinet appointment. But I think people have to focus on what people are losing in this country. They’re losing their savings and their homes.” DLTDHYOTWO, El Pollo Bill.
