It's down to three

Bill Richardson has dropped out of the Democratic Presidential race, leaving three runners for two spots. Richardson's poor showing in both Iowa and New Hampshire contests certainly made things difficult, despite his wish to carry on until the Nevada primary and beyond. His positive nature was evident throughout the debates, but his fundraising and inability to compete with the popularity of the other candidates who are big name draws. He has already ruled out accepting an offer to become one of the remaining triuvirate's Vice Presidential partner, saying that he loves being Governor of New Mexico.

The NY Times Caucus blog had provided one of his campaign videos, that ranks up there with the most savvy I've seen so far.
