Richardson responds:

Gov. Bill Richardson was in the hallways this morning, so reporters had a chance to ask him about last weekend's report from The Associated Press on his presidential aspirations.

Maybe regular readers can recite along with Richardson here:
"Right now I'm focused on the session," Richardson said. "I'm concentrating on re-election already. That's all I want to say."

Pressed on the matter, Richardson said, "There's been this kind of speculation, but I don't want to talk about anything beyond my re-election."

According to the AP article, we've gone way past the point of "speculation." Somebody ought to kindly remind the Governor that even if he doesn't "want to talk about anything beyond [his] re-election," the fact that he's "concentrating on re-election already" entitles New Mexicans to know the truth about his plans.

New Mexico voters need to know how often we would actually see him in the state if we re-elected him to a second term.
