Cleaver discusses his support for Sen. Clinton
They met one-on-one in a private room on the Senate side of Congress. Each expressed concerns on a multitude of pertinent issues.

Before leaving the room, Sen. Hillary Clinton asked for a big favor.

She asked U.S. Rep. Emanuel Cleaver to support her candidacy for president of the United States. Cleaver was frank with the senator. He told her he was struggling to make a decision. In fact, he explained that he just might have to stay on the sidelines and remain neutral. Making political enemies was Cleaver’s concern.

For weeks after that meeting, Cleaver weighed his options.

1. Time to write Mr. Cleaver again.
I would prefer he remain on the sidelines.

3. he's already endorsed Clinton
the sell-out.

That's the great thing about being the media appointed front-runner though. Everyone runs to you to get an early seat on the bandwagon of the 'inevitable' winner.
