A leader of the Democratic Party under Bill Clinton has switched his allegiance to Barack Obama and is encouraging fellow Democrats to "heal the rift in our party" and unite behind the Illinois senator.
Joe Andrew, who was Democratic National Committee chairman from 1999-2001, planned a news conference Thursday in his hometown of Indianapolis to urge other Hoosiers to support Obama in Tuesday's primary, perhaps the most important contest left in the White House race. He also has written a lengthy letter explaining his decision that he plans to send to other superdelegates.
"I am convinced that the primary process has devolved to the point that it's now bad for the Democratic Party," Andrew said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press.
Boy aint that the truth.
he gave a presser and said out loud and on tape...it rocked....alright....a REAL insider defection...
ReplyDeleteHe also rocked on Keith tonight. What d'ya know, a DNC leader w/principles. He seemed most outraged that Evan Bayh questioned if he was really an Indiannan. And Keith pointed out that none of these "questions" were important to Clinton-supporters BEFORE he switched.
