3. as a long time Nevada political activist let me tell you

these spineless bastards only endorse winners
after the fact
they thought this was a coronation
and when it wasn't
they took there balls and went home

you know who you are.....

4. The WSJ changed the title of their article from...

"Expected to Endorse" to "May Endorse" as well.

Eh, whatever. Maybe it's out of last minute guilt towards Edwards. Maybe they want to make sure that Obama isn't weakening.

Are Union endorsements really that strong anymore? Are they really the guarantee for votes they used to be?
