Bill Who?


AP: Richardson to End Presidential Bid
By NEDRA PICKLER

MERRIMACK, N.H. (AP) - New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson ended his campaign for the presidency Wednesday after twin fourth-place finishes that showed his impressive credentials could not compete with his rivals' star power.


Richardson planned to announce the decision Thursday, according to two people close to the governor with knowledge of the decision. They spoke on a condition of anonymity in advance of the governor's announcement. Richardson's campaign would not comment on the governor's decision, reached after a meeting with his top advisers Wednesday in New Mexico.


Apparently Richardson is about to join such liberal luminaries as Chris Dodd, Joe Biden and Michael Dukakis in the dung heap of American political history.
