This was on the Situation Room just now.

2. I agree with the Governor
I've never been swayed to vote FOR someone due to an endorsement, however when someone gets endorsed by Grover Norquist or Paul Weyrich or some other right wing constitution hating lunatic there's a damn good chance (100%) that I won't vote for whomever they endorsed.

6. I've always thought that
when a person endorses someone else they are saying that I (the endorser) am important, listen to me. I love Senators Kennedy and Kerry but they didn't sway the primary in their state.

8. Nope, they didn't. But,
he did cut her lead in half in a short period of time here in MA. Whether that was the result of the Kerry and Kennedy endorsements wholly, or partially, well, we'll never know. :)

5. I believe I saw him talking down to Obama's young supporters as well in that segment.

7. Yes, we're too stupid to know about Obama's
position on nuclear energy.
