WASHINGTON (Map, News) - D.C. Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton says she's backing Illinois Sen. Barack Obama in Tuesday's Democratic presidential primary.

The city's nonvoting House member says Obama co-sponsored the D.C. voting rights bill, and she believes he'll work to give the district more home rule authority.

Norton says Obama is "straight out of central casting" as the person who's best prepared to lead the country as president.

D.C. Mayor Adrian Fenty has already endorsed Obama.

4. Thanks, cloudythescribbler! It was a boring ole vacation,

but it was enjoyed in a lot of sunshine, and my beloved NY Giants won the Super Bowl on my birthday, with my twin by my side. So that was awesome! I missed DU, but it was nice to 'get away' even though I did miss Super Duper Tuesday.
