Endorsements

There have been some significant endorsements today for Obama. Robert Reich posted his on his blog: http://robertreich.blogspot.com/2008/04/obama-for-president.html

Sam Nunn also endorsed Obama, while Clinton picked up the king of earmark pork, Pennsylvania Congressman Jack Murtha.

While I truly believe that endorsements do not matter (other than Springsteen's) it is interesting to me that senior professionals, who have known the Clinton's for many years are gravitating to the new entrant, Obama. What do they know? What has been their experience with the Clinton's. Do they have policy disagreements? Unlikely that as they all preach from the hymnal of Democratic Party orthodoxy.

I believe that it must be personal. It must be something in the manner, style, and personality of the Clintons. I believe that those who have known them for years (except those who have hitched their wagons to the Clinton star) don't like them. I think there is something very unlikeable about the Clintons.
