That's actually a good choice. Latinos vote less of a straight ticket than other minorities and have leaned Republican in the past. Richardson might help keep them within the Democratic fold.
If McCain was smart, he'd grab Olympia Snowe and turn the tables on the Dems. She's middle-of-the-road and has sponsored legislation to get out of Iraq though she voted for both Afghanistan and Iraq initially as did nearly everyone else. She's very engaging and well-liked by her fellow Senators.
