Former Clintonite DNC Chair To Endorse Obama
Barack Obama will reportedly pick up a key endorsement this afternoon: “The man who served as national manager of former President Clinton’s 1992 campaign plans to endorse Sen. Barack Obama, an aide to Obama said Wednesday. Obama’s campaign planned a 1 p.m. conference call Wednesday to announce the endorsement by David Wilhelm, who later became chairman of the Democratic National Committee, according to an aide who spoke on condition of anonymity because the announcement would be made public later in the day.” [NY Times]
I can understand Clintonites being disappointed as I was myself when she lost in the primaries, but before you think about voting for McCain, remember that the McCain Republicans and certain broadcasters did everything they could to destroy Hillary’s chances. Now that Hillary is no longer a threat, they are trying to get Clintonites to feel bitter against Obama and to vote McCain.
