How's this for commitment: Former senator and newspaperman
Paul Simon of Illinois endorses Howard Dean for President today. Simon made his endorsement "from his hospital bed in Springfield, Ill., where he awaits open-heart surgery." Simon told the
Chicago Tribune, that Dean 'is best prepared to lead the nation. He called the former Vermont governor someone who will "tell us the truth and not just pander to us."'
I've always admired Simon, and I supported him in '88 largely because of his straight, honest talk that didn't pander. We wish you well in your surgery, Senator!
