   And for those of you who may not understand why Ted Sorenson's endoresement is so big for Obama:

   Ted Sorenson served as Special Counsel & Adviser to president John F. Kennedy, with responsibility for the domestic agenda; however, after the Bay of Pigs debacle, President Kennedy asked Sorensen to take part in foreign policy discussions as well. As a result, he played a critical role in resolving the Cuban Missile Crisis, drafting Kennedy's correspondence with Nikita Khrushchev.

   Why didn't he endorse Clinton, with her "35 years of experience"? Why not watch a video of his reasoning in his own words: http://youtube.com/watch?v=ReDCmk2c2g8

   Why are Brack Hussein Obama supporters always so defensive? It seems like desperation and reminds me of someone clawing to get out of a hole.

   Senator Obama, I served with Jack Kennedy;

   I knew Jack Kennedy; Jack Kennedy was a friend of mine;

   Jack Kennedy was a military hero; Jack Kennedy had nearly a decade of experience serving in the U.S. Congress before he became president.

   Senator Obama, you're no Jack Kennedy.

   When Nev Senator Harry Reid was pushed by the Clinton machine for Senate Majority Leader (Reid is pro life- an unusual choice for the Democrats as a "leader") - the fix was in

   In exchange Reid pushed for and got the early Caucus. In a Caucus the Party pays the cost-- if it was a Primary the State would have to pay.

   Harry and Rory Reid control the Nevada Republican Party - they wanted a Caucus and not a primary exactly for the reasons the Clintons are now complaining. Because they were so certain Hillary would get the union support -- that just did not happen.

   The Nev Dem party set the rules for the caucus last March and ratified them last August- they tried to sue this week to stop their own plan because they know the union support is so important.

   Not add to that the owner/editor of the Major LV newspaper- the Las Vegas Sun (Brian Greenspun) was Bill Clinton's roommate at Yale and donated $500,000 to the Clinton library-- and WHAT A SURPRISE - his newspaper the LVSun endorsed Hillary Clinton.

   Hillary will likely win the caucus today- the fact that Obama is even competitive is amazing -- (a) because of all of the above and (b) he is running against 3 people -- Hillary - Bill - and the Memory of a world before 9/11 and when there was economic prosperity

   Hillary may be the democratic nominee- but it is unlikely she will win against McCain. And both of them are yesterday -- this is a new world and a whole new ballgame - politically and economically

   Obama is the chance for the future to start --
   I find it depressing that older voters (of which I am one) - and women (of which I am one) cannot seem to desperate their emotion of those two issues with the reality we are facing

   I cannot stand the fact we will have another republican president -- or if Hillary wins-- in four years it will be Jeb

   Please - in a country our size -- break the cycle

   I applaud Obama for trying -- maybe it's not over yet
