An apology to Richardson Supporters:

[gateley]

I was under the impression that Richardson had no definite exit strategy PLAN. That his only 'one point' plan was "Bring the troops home". I didn't get beyond that -- and I viewed that as an approach, his hope, what he WOULD do, but not a PLAN.

risnd (wise DUer) directed me to Richardson' site with the following message:

Biden certainly has a plan. I just don't see why someone has to claim that Richardson does not.

And once at his site, I realized I HAD heard his 7-point "How we do it" PLAN. So I stand corrected and want to give credit where credit is due.

Yours in contrition,
gateley

2. Nicely done.

I'm going to see Richardson tomorrow.
Many say he's much better in person than on TV.

10. Have a wonderful time. I think it would be so exciting to see/hear a candidate

speak! Get your question/s ready if you get the opportunity or if the press sticks a microphone in your face.

3. No problem gateley

and kudos to Biden on his plan.

4. Good point. He does have a reasoned, and timely exit strategy.

The nation, and the world, know we have to leave Iraq. As do all of our candidates, in one form or another. The how's and wherefore's remain to be seen, but it is a clear consensus.

7. Credit goes to risnd - who supports a candidate other than Richardson - for

bringing it to my attention.

5. how nice. I am not a supporter but, I really like Richardson.

I like just about all the candidates except for one. I think Richardson is a great guy and would make a great president.

6. Well done.

Thanks to your efforts, Biden is moving up in my opinion.

Richardson also agrees with the Biden plan for federation as a part of a possible solution. Richardson has provided further detail in a speech today on how to quickly withdraw our troops.

9. I hope we'll be seeing a lot more of both our guys! nt
