January 28, 200818 yr WASHINGTON (AP) — Two generations of Kennedys — the Democratic Party's best known political family — endorsed Barack Obama for president on Monday, with Sen. Edward M. Kennedy calling him a "man with extraordinary gifts of leadership and character," a worthy heir to his assassinated brother. Kennedy's endorsement was ardently sought by all three of the remaining presidential contenders, and he delivered it at a pivotal time in the race. A liberal lion in his fifth decade in the Senate, the Massachusetts senator is in a position to help Obama court Hispanic voters as well as rank-and-file members of labor unions, two key elements of the Democratic Party. http://www.usatoday.com/news/politics/election2008/2008-01-27-kennedy-obama_N.htm?loc=interstitialskip

And FWIW, did you expect them to endorse Hillary?
January 28, 200818 yr And FWIW, did you expect them to endorse Hillary? Being that the Kennedy's and Clinton's have known each other for quite some time, and I'm assuming are friends, it could be surmised that she would have his endorsement. Which is one reason this is a big endorsement for Barack.
January 28, 200818 yr Obama has the support of both senators from Mass and the daughter of their favorite son. It's big for Barack and gives him a little push in a big state.
January 28, 200818 yr Super Tuesday should be interesting as Obama certainly has nice momentum going.
