The Endorsements Keep Coming In
They're not super-delegates, but Robert Reich, Sam Nunn, and David Boren have a certain gravitas that's important to a candidate, especially one that is considered young and new on the block.
Reich was Bill Clinton's Labor Secretary and even dated Obama's rival in college. Reich makes these comments:
Sam Nunn is a Moderate Democrat from Georgia. He served for 8 years as chair of the Senate Armed Forces Committee. David Boren is currently President of the University of Oklahoma and a long time senator from that state. He was, during his time in the Senate, chair of the Intelligence Committee. The two former senators will join Obama's foreign policy team.
Now, these endorsers might not have the same clout with voters as say The Boss, but we'll take them
Reich was Bill Clinton's Labor Secretary and even dated Obama's rival in college. Reich makes these comments:
“Although Hillary Clinton has offered solid and sensible policy proposals, Obama’s strike me as even more so,” Mr. Reich adds. “His plans for reforming Social Security and health care have a better chance of succeeding. His approaches to the housing crisis and the failures of our financial markets are sounder than hers. His ideas for improving our public schools and confronting the problems of poverty and inequality are more coherent and compelling. He has put forward the more enlightened foreign policy and the more thoughtful plan for controlling global warming.”

Sam Nunn on a ticket with Obama might be a lock to win in November. It would keep the "Reagan Democrats" out of McCain's camp. I hope he considers it.
