A Richardson Campaign memo notes the great number of undecideds breaking for Richardson in Iowa, helping to prepare Iowa for a caucus night surprise. Add those undecideds with Biden and Dodd supporters who will have to realign and Richardson is poised to exceed expectations and carry new momentum into New Hampshire and then to here in Nevada.

As you know, we are well positioned for a big upset on caucus night. The biggest hurdle we will face in bringing our supporters home will be questions about viability on the ground. Here are the numbers we have confirmed to address this directly:

Dear Carson City Democrats,

We just flew into Des Moines from New Hampshire, and right now we're on our way to meet up with some Iowa voters. As I write this, we're pulling over to gas up the campaign van.

While I have a second, I wanted to share something with you: No matter what the media may -- or may not -- be reporting, the Governor is still very much in this race.

Let me tell you what the news media is NOT reporting:

At Keene High School in New Hampshire, people were so eager to see Bill Richardson they waited outside in the frigid NH temperatures for over 30 minutes to get into a standing room-only crowd!

And after he held a "Presidential Job Interview" at Concord's largest private employer, our staff literally had to drag the Governor out because the crowd didn't want him to leave!

Now let me share one more piece of news: A brand new poll out of New Hampshire says that not only are HALF of all Democratic voters undecided -- a THIRD of those who've picked their candidate could change their mind.

Governor Richardson picked up Nevada's Plasterers and Cement Masons Local 797. The Las Vegas Review Journal has this story about the endorsement. The LVRJ reported the Governor's acceptance speech,

"I humbly accept your endorsement," a jubilant Richardson told union business manager Marc Leavitt and hundreds of cheering union members who stopped eating hot dogs and hamburgers to listen to the presidential candidate who spoke to them in both English and Spanish. "When I am president, the secretary of labor will be a member of a union ... and I will fire all union-busting attorneys" at the U.S. Department of Labor and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration."
