A small endorsement for Obama

By Libby

This one didn't get much attention but Obama's neighbor Rabbi Arnold Jacob Wolf, who has been the spiritual leader of the synagogue across the street from Obama's home, delivered a ringing endorsement last week.
Obama is no anti-Semite. He is not anti-Israel. He is one of our own, the one figure on the political scene who remembers our past, and has a real vision for repairing our present.

Barack Obama is brilliant and open-hearted; he is wiser and more thoughtful than his former minister. He offers what America, Israel, and the Jewish community need: a US President willing to ask hard questions, and grapple with difficult answers.
Meanwhile, Harry Reid is hinting that the Democratic leadership is about to step in behind the scenes and ask someone to withdraw for the good of the party.

Much as I would like my vote in May to count for something, I'd be happier if the intraparty bickering ends and we could all go back to bashing the GOP again.

Hillary's most recent gaffe: Suggesting that even pledged delegates can be poached. Then WTF are primaries for? And the so-called expressed will of the people? This on top of a stolen election that gave GWP the presidency? I am livid beyond belief. There is NO WAY Hillary will ever get my vote. I am totally fed up and finished with the Clintons.

Agree. Get her out now. Stop her from doing any more damage to Obama. The full force of the party needs to be focused on McCain.

I doubt Constitutional arguments will matter much in these primary election issues. Obama will likely get the nomination, but it is totally legal and Constitutional for delegates to choose whomever they want to in Denver, be it Hillary, Al Gore, or Al Franken.

I really do think it's time for her give it up. Her desperation is starting to really stink. Eight more weeks of this will destroy us.
