k.b.: Does that look like "encouragement" to you? I think he's telling El Diablo he's going to be El Dinnero if he doesn't win. Amazing! Duck Races. On snow! Who knew.

Richardson To Watch Super Bowl With Bill Clinton



(CNN) — CNN has learned that New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson will watch the Super Bowl this Sunday with former President Bill Clinton in Red River, New Mexico.

Despite the obvious implications for the much sought after endorsement of Richardson, a Hispanic who holds sway in the community, a top Democratic source describes this as "two old friends getting together, and not to be "construed as a coming endorsement."

Nonetheless, Richardson is not unaware of the power of that picture. The former president has been phoning Richardson “with regularity” since he dropped out of the Democratic presidential race.

k.b.: Maybe they'll toss the pigskin around for old times sake. I smell something rotten here and it's not locker room sweat.

Registered as "Decline-To-State"? You can vote in the Democratic presidential primary!

Crazy, but it all comes down to States Rights vs. Federal - central authority. States Rights wins this round.

k.b.: I keep trying to go vegetarian, even more so after seeing a picture like this. We still don't know the breeding cycle of so many animals and I know all it would take is one kill to push an animal over the brink to extinction. Is that what we really want? To be the cause of a fellow species demise.
