Slog - Comments on What's Up With Rep. John Lewis? http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/02/whats_up_with_rep_john_lewis The New York Times says he's now backing Obama. The Washington Post says he's made no decision. And this seems to suggest he's going to try to thread the needle, maintaining his endorsement of Clinton while casting his superdelegate vote for Obama. Got that?...

From Lewis's comments he seems to think Clinton is the most qualified but acknowledges the movement and momentum that Obama has built (thus being more electable?). He's doing the right thing for the party.

We don't need them; and they got their chance to vote in their own district like everybody else. I now understand why everybody makes fun of me as a democrat; we're a party full of idiots that are no better than the republicans that chose Bush (because we liked him). If you disagree and think that Obama is a better choice, please give me three major pieces of legislations that he has sponsored that backs up your decision. . . . .

waiting. . . . .

See??!!!!
