Florida for Hillary endorses Obama

Thought this was a happy note, given the fact that a few Florida Democrats (read: Tim Mahoney) have continued to be standoffish in regard to the new nominee.




FLORIDA FOR HILLARY ANNOUNCES ENDORSEMENT OF SENATOR BARACK OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT

FLORIDA HILLARY SUPPORTERS COMMITTED TO ELECTING DEMOCRAT TO WHITE HOUSE

FLORIDA STATEWIDE - Florida for Hillary, the statewide campaign that was largely responsible for her big win in the Florida Primary announces its endorsement of Senator Barack Obama for President.

"Throughout this historic campaign and her incredible life, Senator Clinton has fought for issues that the people of Florida care deeply about, including the expansion of children's health care, the creation a national catastrophic insurance fund and the protection of Israel," said Ana Cruz, Co-Founder and spokesperson for the group. "Senator Barack Obama will fight for these same important causes as President, and we look forward to working with him to make sure that Florida voters are heard."

Florida for Hillary is an organization of Democratic elected officials, party leaders and activists from across the state who mobilized grassroots support to ensure a victory for Senator Clinton in the Florida Democratic Primary on January 29, 2008.

The group now turns its energy and attention to electing Senator Barack Obama the next President. Florida for Hillary will work hard to ensure that every single Floridian who cast their primary vote for Senator Clinton now votes for Senator Obama in November.

"The differences between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are small, but the differences between Democrats and Senator John McCain are enormous," said Co-Founder of Florida for Hillary Alan Clendenin. "John McCain wants to continue the failed policies of the Bush administration. Barack Obama will deliver the change this country desperately needs.

4. Good for them.

That is what all of them should do. Not trying to bargain, not trying to place blame, just hush and endorse.

There has been enough talking.

5. I have no doubt that the majority of Democrats WILL vote for Obama

The very very few so-called Democrats that say they will vote for mccain because their Democratic candidate did not win, do not care about the issues, and believe their nader like actions will turn the election

They are wrong, and irrelevent

Most Clinton supporters realize the what is at stake, and realize what a mccain presidency would do to gender right, or for that matter civil rights. It would put them back at least fifty years through the Supreme Court
