Distinguishing Himself
You may have noticed a different approach from the campaign in the last couple of weeks. They seem to be making a sustained effort to make it clear that Bill Richardson's plan for ending the Iraq War is stronger and more definitive than the other candidates. The Gov has even begun to criticize his rivals' positions on this issue. I think you're going to see more of an effort in that regard in the coming months and days--not to "go negative," but, rather, to make sure that voters understand that, in a number of important ways, Bill Richardson's positions and experience stand out from the pack.

Richardson also commented on this at the AFSCME event - (read about it here: http://www.mydd.com/story/2007/6/19/8458/88138 )
Richardson has made clear that he is looking for a COMPLETE withdrawal and has pointed out the loopholes his opponents are trying to sail through - there is a difference between COMPLETE withdrawal and the withdrawal of "combat troops." Richardson's new site makes it plain that he is looking for a complete withdrawal of troops (check it out at http://www.notroopsleftbehind.com/
) whereas other candidates are hoping no one notices their carefully crafted soundbites are NOT really calling for complete troop withdrawal - they just sound that way. I am very excited that Richardson has launched his site and is making it clear that he really does support the complete withdrawal of troops from Iraq, and that unlike others, he actually means COMPLETE!
