Dodd to endorse Obama and Political bits
I think this may be significant for momentum as Dodd would be the only former candidate to endorse (I know, Dennis endorsed,) but it's not like Dodd brings that many voters with him.
I'll be very curious if we get any backstory. Why now?
Also, SUSA has Obama up by 4 in Texas.
(AP) Bush predicts GOP will hold White House (And Iraq lasted weeks not months. Bring 'em on.)
(NYTimes) SEIU spends heavily for Obama in Texas/Ohio.
Two WaPo analysts deconstruct an Obama stump speech.
The NYTimes has a good graphic on the delegate distribution in Texas.
Mike Allen's take on the Drudge photo thing, "Team Obama lures Team Clinton into a Drudge match on the day she's making a foreign policy speech with military and defense luminaries."
Chuck Todd keeps bringing up those pesky delegates, "Nevertheless, according to our delegate math, Clinton winning both Ohio and Texas by 52%-48% would net her a combined 5-6 delegates."
(Politico) The Obama campaign is shutting down the press.
And, There's a debate tonight. No Chris Matthews, but we will have to sit through Tim Russert, and you know he is going to drill on about that photo.

Dodd endorsement: More about influencing super delegates than mortal voters?
If Obama wins the nomination and the White House, do we see a shake up in senate leadership?

The Politico piece makes the traveling press sound a bit catty. Kind of sniping prima donnas who are perfectly willing to shade their reporting based on how much their ego is stroked... That wasn't the point the author was trying to make, but that's what I came away with.

Superdelegates is a good point. (and momentum.)
And, the Senate leadership may shakeup. I think alot of it has to do with how/if/when Clinton exits the race. About a month ago there were a number of rumors that she was being offered Senate Majority Leader, although I don't know the credibility of those rumors or if that offer would still apply.

This got me thinking. When Hillary speaks, I hear someone who has a great talent for legislations. When I hear Obama speak, I hear someone with a great talent to motivate, unite and lead.
Now, I think Dodd would be a great Senate majority leader. He of all the candidates seems to me to have the most passion for fudamental, constitutional American values. However, Hillary could be very powerful in the hardball maneuvering of legislation. As Senate majority leader -- with an Obama president -- she'd might actually have a better chance of advancing her policy wonk agenda (and I mean that in a good way) than if she was president with Harry Ried as majority leader.

Can you imagine that fight on healthcare legislation?

But as long as it gets a healthy PUBLIC airing, it might not be a bad thing.

I think the Dodd endorsement was a shot across the bow to HRC regarding senate leadership in his administration. She may be compelled to play a lot nicer now...

That's a fair guess, too. If you look at the Dean comment in the political bits above, I think it's clear that there's a collective message.
