DNC Pilar Lujan breaks her pledge to endorse the winner of Guam and endorses Clinton. (Seriously, WTF? Why would you do that?)

She has to owe the Clintons something or they promised her something.  That's all it can be when it comes to the Clintons. This is political suicide for her.

Seeing that there's no point anymore in endorsing Obama just to end this, as it is over?

Look at the bold word and think about it.

Please tell us all about Pilar Lujan.  I'm afraid I don't know anything about her, but luckily it seems that you've read up on her already.

Eh, I would normally agree, but she was elected with the promise to support the caucus winner, so I have trouble respecting that she lied to her constituency.

She probably secretly supported Clinton, thought Clinton would win Guam, and figured that this would be an easy way to explain away her endorsement of Clinton. Unfortunately, Obama won by 7 votes.

You put them as DNC. Are those pledged Edwards delegates or former Edwards superdelegates?

Oops, whenever I see a position like "State Senator" or "Hanover activist" I reflexively put "DNC."

I would normally agree, but in this particular case it merely makes it more FF than it would otherwise be. Cheesy

I saw that on Politico. But there's no mention of it anywhere else (including on Clinton's site). And Politico offered no source. There wouldn't be reason to be skeptical, but he just switched less than three weeks ago. My guess is that someone saw something that had Rodriguez down for Clinton that was published a couple of months ago and assumed he'd endorsed her without realizing that he's switched since then.

Hope you're right...not for Obama's sake, but for this Rodriguez fellow's.  Serial indecision like that must be quite a handicap in a politician.  Clinton-Obama-Clinton?  Damn.

ABC now has something on its blog, so apparently the Clinton campaign did release a statement (though Rodriguez did not). I'm not sure what to make of it. It stills sounds to me more like someone made a mistake as I can't imagine anyone with so little to gain either way being so indecisive as to jump ship twice.

I heard a rumor that Obama is banking most of his supers right now.
