New York Observer endorses Obama
The New York Observer urges New York Democrats to support Mr. Obama in the state's presidential primary on Feb. 5.

New Yorkers might ask why they should not pull a lever for our junior senator, Hillary Rodham Clinton. While Mrs. Clinton is an extraordinary United States senator for New York, we believe that Mr. Obama can be a great president for the United States of America.

Most of the other candidates have absorbed, assimilated or appropriated Mr. Obama's issue of change.

But a great deal of the argument for Mr. Obama's candidacy is about one great issue in American life: Restoring American democracy.

2. great endorsement
Obama can unite the country, excite and energize and the world will have a much different view of us, with the Clintons it will be more of the same. I hope people can realize this.

7. Exactly how will Obama unite the counry and excite and energize
the world? So far, I have no earthly idea what his plans are, except to sit down at a table across from pugs and sing campfire songs. Please, please tell me what his plans are.

13. Obama has had a slew of good paper endorsements......
Cause he is interviewed in-depth by them.

That's where he withstands the real test.
