Richardson makes a ton of sense for Obama, I think. He's got great foreign policy credentials and he could help with the Hispanic vote, where Obama has had some trouble. He is a call back to the Clinton era, which many Dems will like. He's got age and experience that could help.
I can't see that it would cost Obama any votes, as any person bothered by Richardson's race would already be against Obama to begin with.
Keep in mind, New Mexico went GOP in 2004, 88, 84, 80, 76, 72 and 68. I know it's not a very big state, but every little bit helps.
Of course, it makes so much since that it obviously won't happen.
