An Interesting Endorsement

The Clinton campaign is announcing several Hudson County endorsements on Monday (full list of attendees below the fold). They have one funny endorsement, though: Hoboken Mayor David Roberts. His way of expressing support for his favorite candidate is different from how most people would do it. He contributed ~~$500~~ $450 to Rudy 9u11iani's campaign in September, 2007. As far as I can tell, he hasn't contributed to Clinton's campaign yet.

Has Brian Stack endorsed anybody yet? (0.00 / 0)

If not, Clinton and Obama have split the county's two State Senators. Stack would be the tie-breaker unless he does something dumb like endorse Edwards.

Pleeze (0.00 / 0)

Stop trashing Edwards.

If you want to feel better, read the scurrilous post by Lawrence O'Donnell at HuffPo.

If you want to feel worse, read the almost 800 comments taking him to task for his juvenile tantrum.

We all know you are an Obama supporter and that you think Edwards should withdraw from the primary.

How many times do you have to say it?

as many times as it takes (0.00 / 0)

But the point of my comment was to ask if Brian Stack had endorsed anybody. The Edwards comment was an aside that should have been taken as such.

Thanks for the heads-up on the LD HP piece, though. I generally like what he has to say and it is good to know that he and I are on the same wavelength with regards to the Ken Doll.
