13. I wonder if the timing is because of the various "Jewish" related smears

in the last week and today - They are both Jewish according to votesmart (I figured they were because of names - I assume "Berman" is the CA Representative.)

CWA President, A Super-Delegate, Will Endorse Obama


By Greg Sargent - May 15, 2008, 12:37PM
Larry Cohen, the president of the Communication Workers of America and a super-delegate from D.C., will endorse Obama today, CWA's communications office confirms to me.

A press release will go out sometime soon. CWA's umbrella union sat out the primary, and had left it up to individual locals to decide whom to endorse.

That brings Obama's count for the day to two. Seattle Rep. Jim McDermott threw his backing to the Illinois Senator today.

This is also Obama's second labor endorsement today, having picked up the backing of the steelworkers' union this morning -- suggesting that John Edwards' endorsement of Obama yesterday is hastening the coalescing of institutional support behind the Illinois Senator.

"Late Update: The Obama camp has also just announced the support of Congressmen Henry Waxman and Howard Berman, both from California."
