PA Senator Bob Casey Steps Up, Endorses Obama
We need more Bob Casey’s:
Pennsylvania Sen. Bob Casey plans to endorse Sen. Barack Obama for president today in Pittsburgh, sending a message both to the state’s primary voters and to undecided superdelegates who might decide the close race for the Democratic presidential nomination.
Dan Pfeiffer, deputy communications director for the Obama campaign, confirmed that Casey would announce his support during a rally at the Soldiers and Sailors Military Museum and Memorial and that he would then set out with the Illinois senator on part of a six-day bus trip across the state.
The endorsement comes as something of a surprise. Casey, a deliberative and cautious politician, had been adamant about remaining neutral until after the April 22 primary. He had said he wanted to help unify the party after the intensifying fight between Obama and Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton.
Thanks Bob! If nothing else do it for the kids, eh?
Casey’s decision was also personal, motivated in part by the enthusiasm his four daughters - Elyse, Caroline, Julia and Marena - have expressed for Obama, the source said. “He thinks we shouldn’t be deaf to the voices of the next generation.”
What a big mistake that another fool thinks Obama is the ticket. The only thing better than Hillary winning the white house would be Obama getting the nomination and losing the general. Wake up you idiots Obama cannot win. This will be the end of him being able to run for president and he is so young it would be a shame to see his fortunes in the toilet.
