"Mr. Richardson was still sporting a beard, which he grew during what he called a period of decompression after abandoning his presidential bid two months ago."

what in the world is newsworthy about richardson's beard? is the beard seen as a universal sign of defeat followed by serious introspection, which then culminates in an endorsement? or is it a statement on his judgment- is a man who is still sporting a beard right and balanced in mind as to make the proper campaign endorsement? should we take this bearded fellow's opinions with a grain of salt?
dearest bearders, tell me more about the significance of richardson's bearding, for i cannot see why it was mentioned.

I think they mentioned the beard because Richardson himself has mentioned it several times.
But beard or no beard, Richardson is a good man in my book. But I never had doubt that he would support Obama in the first place, despite his relationship with the Clintons.
Was it a strike beard?
