In case you've missed it, there's been some talk of Bill Richardson being Judas after nearly endorsing Hillary Clinton after his Super Bowl party with Bill Clinton and then later endorsing Barack Obama. The idea is that Richardson saw the writing on the wall that Hillary was not going to win the nomination and scrambled into Obama's corner in order to get a job in the new administration. I don't think this is the case though. You see, Bill Richardson has been spending his free time doing two things: 1) running New Mexico, and 2) growing a spiffy I-didn't-get-elected-President beard ala Al Gore circa 2001.
Before I continue, I have to tell you two more things: 1) I worked in the frozen tundra of New Hampshire for Richardson and I honestly like the guy and 2) politics is a lot like acting, it's hard to find a steady paying gig. Richardson's a smart guy and knows this, so I think he's decided to do things Fred Thompson style and audition for a regular guest spot on a long running series. Thing is that Thompson already has Law and Order locked up. So what else is out there that will be around for aeons to come? Days of Our Lives!
I'm thinking that Bill Richardson is about to do what he can to oust Joseph Mascolo from the Days cast and take over as perennial villain, mobster, and fine wine aficionado Stefano DeMira. The proof is compelling:
Just think, when you see Bill Richardson kidnap John and brainwash him or sabotage somebody's plane in order to win a decades-long feud, you'll remember that you heard it here first.
In order for me to not be a complete single party hack, I think it's important to call attention to another politician that's about to make it big as an actor: Rudy Giuliani. My hunch here is that he'll work on the much anticipated remake of the classic silent film Nosferatu as the namesake character. Just take a look:
