Gore, Edwards to Endorse Obama?

By

Has anyone seen this rumor? And any thoughts about the apparent decision (assuming the rumor is true) to wait until after Super Tuesday?

  2. Hey, what’s a little rumor perpetuating among friends?

    p>I hope this one happens. And when there is nobody of consequence left to endorse him, I predict that Bill Clinton will come out and officially endorse Obama…claiming that he has supported him from the beginning. 🙂

  4. going to happen, you can bet that it would have already been done.  An endorsement after Super Tuesday has little or no value to the recipient, and it’s not too good for the endorsee either.  I think both Edwards and Gore hope to retain the respect of the party insiders and would not make such a foolish move.  I could be wrong though because this is the strangest season in my lifetime.  Please, let it be over soon!

      1.  BHO may have just gotten the endorsement very recently
        2.  BHO did just get the endorsements of Mrs. Governator et al and wanted to save the JRE and AGJr endorsements for when he needed some mo’ mo.
        3.  If BHO hangs in on 2/5, these endorsements might be helpful in rallying the undecideds afterwards.  Since the remaining primaries/caucuses are spread out a bit more, money may not be as valuable as good press and good motivating.
