Meredith Woods-Smith endorses Obama! (SD from Oregon)
http://www.oregonlive.com/commentary/oregonian/index.ssf?/base/editorial/121192890383090.xml&coll=7

"he demonstrates the leadership needed to get us out of Iraq, restore our economy, begin the tough job of providing health care for all Americans and, most of all, heal the divisions in our nation. His commitment to grass-roots organizing, similar to Howard Dean's "Fifty State Strategy," will help Democrats win our down-ticket races. His deep understanding of our Constitution ensures that he will appoint judges, to both the Supreme Court and lower federal courts, who will truly defend our constitutional rights and freedoms.

In 1960, I was too young to vote, but I was so inspired by John F. Kennedy that I worked on his campaign and continue to be motivated by his legacy of social and civic responsibility. He is one of the reasons I became chairwoman of Oregon's Democratic Party. I believe that Obama is providing that same inspiration for our next generation of leaders."

8. He won't- but that's OK. And the number may well not be 2026
after Saturday. Of course, that's dependent on Hillary accepting the proposed solution of the RBC.

13. That's awesome the state chair of Oregon
endorsed him. I think we have 5 undecideds left for the Oregon delegation. He's up 5-2 with Oregon superdelegates.
