Change to Win Union Goes for Obama
The Change to Win consortium of unions, representing 5 million workers, is endorsing Barack Obama. This follows on the heels of the 1.5 million member Teamsters Union endorsement. In addition to the endorsement, the union is calling for Clinton to drop out of the race. It seems, especially since Wisconsin and polls showing Clinton losing support in Texas and Ohio, there is a realization everywhere but in the Clinton camp that Obama is headed for the nomination. Perhaps the time is coming soon for a group of party "wise men/women" to pay a visit to the Clintons and tell them what everyone else knows: that they will only hurt the party's chances in November if they persist in their restoration ego trip.
