Richardson plaigarizes Jon Stewart ;-)

From Ben Smith's Politico coverage of the Richardson-Obama endorsement:

"It's an interesting move: He says he's endorsing Obama specifically because of his speech. It's certainly a useful validation of it.

'He could have awaited for the controversy over the deplorable remarks of Reverend Wright to subside, as it surely would have,' Richardson says. 'Instead, Senator Obama showed us what kind of leader he truly is.'

'He spoke to us as adults,' he says."
