This doesn’t matter much for the Republicans, but for Clinton it is a significant boost, and the rumours were that it might go to Obama. The endorsement was a bit grudging, but it validates Clinton’s claims to experience and preparedness:
Indeed, Obama, her chief rival, inspired our imaginations. But it was Clinton who inspired our confidence. Each time we met, she impressed us with her knowledge and her competence.
Is there any chance that this endorsement will make McCain a threat to Thompson? I’m doubtful, but if so this could be the editorial that sent Fred packing.
