Nice Is Out

Posted by John V. Kjellman January 11, 2008 09:14 AM

Now we learn that the nicest person in the whole campaign has dropped out. Governor Richardson withdrew from the race yesterday (Jan. 10). While I'll be the first to say we shouldn't elect someone as president on the basis of how nice he or she is, it does strike me as a bit odd that the three Democratic candidates at the top of my "nice" list have dropped out of contention. That's Senators Biden and Dodd, and Governor Richardson. So much for being nice.

About Primary voices The Boston Globe asked Democrats, Republicans and independents in three communities to blog for us as they decide who will get their vote in New Hampshire's first-in-the-nation presidential primary. The Democrats are from Henniker, the Republicans from Kingston and the independents are from Nashua.
