Richardson to endorse Obama

    Pelosi's treatment of the Florida/Michigan question makes it clear she prefers BO.

    Given Edwards' public posture this year, hard to believe he'd endorse HRC. Looks as if both he and BO are playing the waiting game, with JE hoping his potential endorsement will increase in value, while BO is hoping that Edwards will eventually figure he'd better get on the right horse, or he's going to get left.

    The endorsement's value isn't so much what it gives Obama, but its appearance as a slap to Hillary.
    Shall we start a pool on when Richardson gets garrotted?

    Is Richardson pledging all of the support he had when he ran for president?

    Oh wait...

    Yeah. Both guys are going to vote for Obama now.

    I think this brings Obama one step closer -- the goal for him is to line up as many of these kinds of endorsements as he can so that the superdelegates will not waver and will remain confident in him.

    And I think if Pelosi and then John Edwards jumped on before Pa. it would render that states outcome moot.

    I'm just glad this thread was about Pete and not Nolan, who can make a racial issue out of the sun coming up.

    Your ability with the quote function is rife with fail.
     
  12. I think this was timed perfectly. Obama's had a rough couple of weeks -- big speech notwithstanding -- and this is a news-cycle-devouring story.
