That might be the most powerful endorsement yet.

It doesn't matter if Jesus came flying down from the clouds and offered his endorsement of Obama, the hardest thing to break is a group-think trance and of course bigotry. I have a feeling the Obama movement will die out after super-Tuesday. I hope I'm wrong though.

This pretty much guarantees a victory for Hillary.

I don't think the average voter going into the booth on super-Tuesday cares what Kennedy has to say either way. People have pretty much already made up their minds.

at least the Oprah fans have.

Do you think there's still time for Hillary to get Jerry Springer's endorsement?

I agree with H80. It is hismost powerful endorsement. Barack Obama was just given Massachusetts on a silver platter. But, does it really mean anything other than a news article? I really don't know.
Obama, by his obvious popularity as a legitimate candidate; is now in the position of President or Vice-President as far as the Dems are concerned. Either he will win the nomination outright; or not. If he doesn't, whomever does will choose him as their running mate just on his popularity alone.
And guess what? Barack Obama has shown that the time is near- if not here- for a Black candidate with a legitimate chance. I never regarded Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton as legitimate candidates. That "vote for me because I'm Black" campaign song and dance by both was dead before it was ever born. They had no platform. During their attempts, the Dems were at an all-time low in my book for even fielding them as candidates. But now, the door has just been kicked open for 2012's Black candidate. I can almost guarantee who it will be: JC Watts.

Hillary won Florida, and she might win California, too. She holds a commanding lead. That's a big state for her. Maybe Teddy's endorsement may not mean anything for Hillary.

Crazy world.

Retiree states. Too many old people. I have a feeling it's going to be the original 'mainstream media pick' of McCain vs. Clinton after all. Bad news for anyone that wants change...which is pretty much everyone...except old people.

Although we can't count out the possibility of Obama winning the nomination out of shear delegates. Clinton won the popular vote in Nevada, for example, but Obama got more delegates. If young people simply voted, this election would be Obama's by a landslide. But unfortunately the people that had a hard time integrating races and probably think Obama is too 'uppity' is continuing to prove to be a decisive factor in deciding our futures.

"Obama" is just too foreign sounding of a name for the President of the United States. "Huckabee" is too stupid sounding of a name for a president.
