coming in for Biden?
Ive supported several of the candidates who have been up on the debate stage with him, Costos said. Now this has come to a point where this in my hometown. And I need to go ahead and support Joe Biden.
Costos said two issues in particular drove him to back Biden in the race: Bidens commitment to fighting piracy in the entertainment industry, which he witnessed while serving as ambassador to Spain, and Bidens early endorsement of gay marriage in 2012.

Fund raisers are exactly the guys Joe needs right now . . . Rep. Clyburn said it today:

Rep. Clyburn Says Biden Needs To Retool Campaign
Rep. James Clyburn, whose late endorsement of former Vice President Joe Biden could end up making a huge difference in Saturdays primary, says that if Biden wins, then the candidate will need to reflect on how to change strategies going forward.
We will have to sit down and get serious about how we retool this campaign, Clyburn told CNN on Saturday afternoon. We need to do some retooling in the campaign, no question about that. I did not feel free to speak about it or to even deal with it inside because I had not committed to his candidacy. I have now, and Im all in and Im not going to sit back idly and watch people mishandle this campaign.
. . . Clyburn added that the former vice president needs to focus more on fundraising.
I think he will have to do better, no question about that, Clyburn said.
Exit polls show that the congressmans endorsement could help toward that end on Saturday. About a quarter of primary voters said the endorsement was a critical factor in whom they decided to support, according to CNNs exit polls.
