3. Yeah, I'd heard that. The CBC is split evenly between Clinton and Obama.
Of the 42-member CBC, 15 are for Clinton, 15 for Obama (including Conyers) and 3 for Edwards, with the others yet to endorse a candidate.

9. Mmmm... Music to my ears...
Anyone
But
Clinton

Actually, I am not big on Kucinich or Gravel either, but for different reasons.
ABC,K,AG doesn't have quite the ring, does it?

12. John Conyers has really Jumped the Shark....
with me.
He doesn't even endorse the guy that co-wrote his not for profit health care bill with him.
I thought that was the most important thing to him besides up holding the constitution. OOPS!!!

:banghead:

16. I absolutely did know that! It's great, eh?
Now I just hope that when Carl Levin decides, he'll pick Obama!
