All indications are that democratic presidential hopeful Bill Richardson has terminated his White House aspirations after registering a disappointing fourth in last Thursday's Iowa caucus and yesterday's New Hampshire primary.
Running on the platform of keen economic, foreign policy and leadership experience, Richardson's message was unable to resonate with voters across the Hawkeye and Granite state, despite his numerous attempts to stage himself as the one candidate on the democratic side who has the fundamental ability to lead the country based upon his performance as New Mexico Governor, member of Congress, the New Mexico Statehouse, and as the secretary of Energy for former Commander in Chief Bill Clinton.
While bolstered by an impressive resume, Richardson was consistently unable to gain the momentum and traction to compete with Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. Richardson will remain New Mexico Governor until his term limit runs out in 2010.
