TNR says Edwards; some intern at DMR claims Biden got the nod.

Who knows? Walter Mondale, RFK Jr., and Bill Clinton have all called the DMR to vouch for Senator Clinton. I predict Obama, by a hair.

Register's Democratic endorsements:

1988: Paul Simon.
Outcome: Simon lost.

1992: No one
Outcome: None of the above lost

2000: Bill Bradley
Outcome: Bradley lost

2004: John Edwards
Outcome: Edwards lost.

Sure looks like a big "get" for Hillary.

Hillary bought them off or something.

Hillary met with the editor several times, they sent out Democratic luminaries like Mondale to attest to Hillary's skills, and Big Dawg called Washburn on multiple occasions to seal the deal.
