I believe the Steelworkers had supported Edwards and probably came over to Obama after that endorsement. Unions have money and workers so they are pretty big but he was likely to have it anyway. No labor union would endorse a Republican.
Still the timing is helpful so I think it's a pretty big deal.
The Hill asked all 97 senators who are not running for president the same question: “If you were asked, would you accept an offer to be the VP nominee?”
Sen. Barbara Mikulski (D-Md.) “Absolutely. Absolutely. I think I would be great. First of all, I know how to behave at weddings and funerals. And I know how to be commander in chief. I’d bring a lot of fun to the job. We would rock the Naval Observatory.”
Sen. Pat Roberts (R-Kan.) “No. I don’t cut ribbons well or give eulogies at funerals.”
Sen. Bob Bennett (R-Utah) “Of course. Big house, big car, not much to do. Why not?”
Sen. Robert Byrd (D-W.Va.) “No, I can already preside over the Senate, and I do not enjoy spending a lot of time at ‘undisclosed locations.’ ”
Sen. Judd Gregg (R-N.H.) “No. I don’t like going to funerals.”
Sen. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa) “No, I’d have Jon Stewart stand in for me. Jon Stewart. That’s my guy.”
Sen. Daniel Inouye (D-Hawaii) “If I were asked, I would say, ‘You’re out of your mind.’ ”
Sen. Edward Kennedy (D-Mass.) “I plan to stick with my current job until I get the hang of it.”
Sen. Ted Stevens (R-Alaska) “No. I’ve got too many things that I still want to do as a senator. And I don’t like the idea of a job where you sit around and wait for someone to die.”
I also thought Boxer's was funny just because it was so practical
Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) “I’m not the right choice for the Democrats because they’re going to carry California. So they should really look elsewhere. And I can really help them right here in the Senate as chairman of the Environment and Public Works Committee.”

i have a sneaking suspicion that im going to go to sleep and Obama will have won, only to wake up and because a super delagate recount Mcain will be the president.
ugh Terry McAuliffe and Howard Wolfson remind me of used car salesmen. their selling points are tired and slimy.
Yes.
And this business of "We lost. So we're going to blame it on sexism and further divide the party" is pissing me off.
STFU and GTFO.
And saying that you don't believe there was any racism? To hell with you.
Look at the f*cking exit polls! If race played a factor in someones decision they're a f*cking racist.
Also, I think some of Hillary's own supporters are pretty damn sexist. If you take the gender of your candidate into consideration at all... thats sexism. How many women out there are voting for Hillary because shes a woman?
/rant off.

Can somebody just forward this to Mrs. Clinton please?
It would really impress me if she came out and said "If you're voting against Obama because hes black, I don't want your vote. Grow up" but... chances of that happening?
OK I usually stay out of the political threads, but I gotta speak up.
How much coverage did yall watch last night from the KY primary. I am sorry, but that was some racist assmofos up there talking at the exit polling.
One person said flat out, I just cant see voting for a black person as president.
Another said I wont vote for someone named Obama.
ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?????? HOLYFUCKINSHIT!!!!!!!!!!
What the hell does someones name or color have to do with how they perform as president.
Hell we have one right now who is white and shares a name with our very first president and one of the founders of this country, and look what a [sarcasm]wonderful[/sarcasm] job he has done.
Sorry you racistfuck, but being white and named George damn sure hasnt helped him!!!
On a side note, did yall see the size of Obama's rally in Oregon the other day....75,000 people went hear that man speak.
I plan on taking my wife and kids to go see him speak if he comes to TN during the General Election, which he probably will, cause you know he has to come down here to the south and convince all us lower class uneducated whiteys that he can do the job.
Barak Obama is hands down the single most inspirational policitican I have ever heard in my life. I wont miss a chance to see him person if the opportunity presents itself.
