It's Official: Bill Richardson Is Running For President

It was an exciting day yesterday. First, the Gov made it official: he's running for president. I know; we knew that already, but it's all about the media events, so the deal is to do multiple announcements--one for the exploratory committee and one for the "official" announcement. So yesterday was a *huge* media day for Bill Richardson. It's good to see him getting the attention he so richly deserves. Experience and electability are what it's all about.

On a more personal note, it was an exciting day for me because the Gov took time out of his busy schedule to have a conference call with a few of us bloggers from around the country. It was interesting stuff, mostly strategy (shhhh, top secret!) and expressions of appreciation for what we BR bloggers are doing here in the blogosphere. There's clearly an air of excitement about the campaign because of the new double-digit poll numbers from IA and NH. This campaign is taking off and it's going to be a fun ride.
