itsmeeeeeee

this is HUGE!!!!

hopefully this signals the beginning of the end - and the flood of supers who've been being intimidated by the clinton machine will burst the dam!

yesterday morning i had just HAD it with the dem party leaders. so the first thing i did was make my coffee, and send faxes to pelosi, reid, and rahm emanuel ripping their leadership.

and THEN, when i read yesterday AFTERNOON about how clinton supporters are now swamping the phones of any congressional super delegate that endorses obama with threatening racist phone calls, i started to call and fax their offices my support - and encouraged them to talk to the other super delegates who are being intimidated by the clinton machine to find the courage to end this thing! NOW!

i was told when i talked to someone at rockefeller's office that it's TRUE! clinton supporters are swamping their phones with VERY nasty calls.

andrew switching his support this morning shows that intimidation isn't working - the clinton machine is dying! hallelujah!
long live america!

Joe Andrew, who was Democratic National Committee chairman from 1999-2001, planned a news conference Thursday in his hometown of Indianapolis to urge other Hoosiers to support Obama in Tuesday's primary, perhaps the most important contest left in the White House race. He also has written a lengthy letter explaining his decision that he plans to send to other superdelegates.

"I am convinced that the primary process has devolved to the point that it's now bad for the Democratic Party," Andrew said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press.

Bill Clinton appointed Andrew chairman of the DNC near the end of his presidency, and Andrew endorsed the former first lady last year on the day she declared her candidacy for the White House.

Andrew said in his letter that he is switching his support because "a vote for Hillary Clinton is a vote to continue this process, and a vote to continue this process is a vote that assists (Republican) John McCain."

"While I was hopeful that a long, contested primary season would invigorate our party, the polls show that the tone and temperature of the race is now hurting us," Andrew wrote. "John McCain, without doing much of anything, is now competitive against both of our remaining candidates. We are doing his work for him and distracting Americans from the issues that really affect all of our lives."

"He has shown such mettle under fire," Andrew said in the interview. "The Jeremiah Wright controversy just reconfirmed for me, just as the gas tax controversy confirmed for me, that he is the right candidate for our party."

Andrew's decision puts Obama closer to closing Clinton's superdelegate lead. Clinton had a big advantage among superdelegates, many of whom like Andrews have ties to the Clintons and backed her candidacy early on. But most of the superdelegates taking sides recently have gone for Obama, who has won more state contests.

Obama now trails her by just 19 superdelegates, 244-263. This week, he picked up eight superdelegates while she netted three.
