I was really surprised another Democrat (NM Gov-Richardson) would jump in with Obama, Clinton, and Edwards.
The Republicans better keep scrambling because this country is tired of their stuff, and what they have right now is not going to cut it.

And will probably be more putting their names in the hat.. So, far, I'm not impressed by many of the GOP candidates.. Quite an interesting mixture of candidates from both parties..
