Gov. Bill Richardson of New Mexico, who sought to become the nation’s first Hispanic president this year, plans to endorse Senator Barak Obama for the Democratic nomination on Friday at a campaign event in Oregon, according to an Obama adviser.
Mr. Richardson, a former congressman and energy secretary in the Clinton administration, dropped out of the Democratic race in January after finishing behind Mr. Obama and Senator Hillary Clinton in the first nominating contests in Iowa and New Hampshire.
[Editor's note: He also finished behind just about everyone else in those contests too.]
This is a huge win for Obama. Richardson's ego alone is so large that it has a dozen delegates all by itself.
