Lost in the Shuffle

New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson had his speaking slot moved from Wednesday night to Thursday afternoonish in order to keep from pushing Senator Biden's speech even later in to the night. (while I've been enjoying the headlining speeches they're keeping me up pretty late, just like playoff baseball)

Gov. Richardson actually gave a great eight minute long speech at Mile High. I'm not sure exactly where it fit into the schedule but it was still light out so it was fairly early. It's a fun eight minutes and he does a great job of delineating the differences between the candidates. and for me it's right up there as one of the best speeches of the convention.

Gov. Richardson got in a few real zingers too:

Lets be honest America John McCain may pay hundreds of dollars for his shoes, but we're the ones who will pay for his flip-flops...

John McCain called our recession psychological, his economic advisers say American families are whiners, but when the big oil companies whine John McCain says they need more tax breaks...
