Gay Superdelegate schmoozed by Chelsea backs Obama

[derzauberberg]

A few weeks ago, 21-year-old Wisconsin superdelegate Jason Rae was taken out to breakfast by Chelsea Clinton in the runup to that state’s Democratic primary. Two days after the vote, the college junior – who will be the youngest superdelegate at this year’s Democratic National Convention — is undecided no longer: he’s backing Barack Obama.

The Advocate has a nice piece on Jason Rae: http://www.advocate.com/exclusive_detail_ektid52256.asp

6. How's that sexist? anyway, just meant as a bit of humor that I guess fell flat - sorry!

2. Huh. All the stories on him, and this is actually the first time I've heard he's gay.

Just an observation. Usually, sexual orientation gets plastered around right away in a news story if that orientation is anything other than straight as an arrow.

3. He worked for the Victory Fund
