It appears that we're not the only ones wondering what leftover position Obama has in store for Bill Richardson.
Al Kamen over at the Washington Post wonders: If Clinton's the Pick, Where Does That Leave Richardson?
The Flypaper tells the sad story of karmic justice:
And what about Bill Richardson, whom I’ve been promoting all week? First, the Washington Post’s “in the loop” reporter Al Kamen wrote this morning that Obama might find a spot for him at Interior, Commerce, or as ambassador to China. Then Alyson Klein at Education Week ridiculed my speculation since Richardson was well-known as an NCLB-hater on the campaign trail. (See, I’m terrible at placing bets because I always gamble on the horse I want to win, rather than the horse most likely to win. And a pro-accountability, anti-NCLB governor sounds good to me!) And now, The Fix is saying that Richardson is being “seriously considered” for Commerce. Well, Bill, it was fun while it lasted.
