As of today for Dean - Congress Endorsements - 5 South, 6 Black

[helleborient]

So how closely does Wesley Clark match these endorsements from the South?

Or Al Sharpton endorsements by members of the Black Congressional Caucus?

1. Al is clueless

Talk about sour grapes; I really think he believed that African-Americans would simply fall behind him because he's black. He talks about dems not appreciating the African-American community and taking their vote for granted, well I think he took their support for granted. It is Sharpton, and only Sharpton, that uses (abuses?) the issue of race. I just enjoy watching his facial expressions each time he is questioned when yet another minority endorses Dean.

3. He's a preacher and a parrot.

He doesn't understand the issues. He is a preacher, not a politician.

He is a great public speaker and that's it.

2. So......

You are suggesting that a few Democrats like Dean and that he can therefore carry large centrist states? Edwards has a better endorsement record than that, and he doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell of even winning the primaries.

And of course people aren't going to endorse Sharpton because he's not in the race to win it. He himself is in the race to endorse someone, so quit referring to the "token black guy"...
