1. Very cool...
But do endorsements really do much for a candidate with such high name recognition?

I dunno.

2. I doubt it, but I do know one thing
I'm not about to question Teri's choice of candidate - AND I'm not about to piss the woman off! She's a H-Core (I guess that's a new hip word with the teenagers)organizer and activist. On her wrong side is where I never want to be! x(

3. Meh.
My mom was pumped about the Register endorsement but I too wonder if it means anything.

So I posted this.

I think most people want to think they don't care about endorsements. If someone very respected to me endorsed my candidate (or another candidate) I think it might make a difference. Problem is finding someone I really respect!

4. I suppose..

As independently minded as I may be, it took Wes Clark's endorsement of Clinton for me to consider her as a candidate. I suppose endorsements do have meaning when coming from someone you truly respect... and I suspect that Teri Murphy is someone that a great deal of people respect.

about a month ago. Has pat endorsed Edwards?

8. She is a nurse at Finley Hospital who has fought hard against management
to get a workable contract. She also happens to be married to Rep. Pat Murphy - Speaker of the Iowa State House. She's great!
