William Weld, the former governor of Massachusetts, has come out with an endorsement for Obama. The reasons he gives for an endorsement could be played, word for word, on an Obama commercial. They are astonishing, calling Obama a "once in a lifetime" candidate.
The full statement:
"Sen. Obama is a once-in-a-lifetime candidate who will transform our politics and restore America's standing in the world. We need a president who will lead based on our common values and Sen. Obama demonstrates an ability to unite and inspire. Throughout this campaign I've watched his steady leadership through trying times and I'm confident he is the best candidate to move our country forward.''
Wow.
