Sen. Baucus - Montana Superdelegate - has Obama sign in his window - will probably endorse Obama
Edited on Mon Jun-02-08 08:39 AM by powergirl
He hasn't officially endorsed but there is an Obama sign in his window at his house!

"Some super-delegates call a press conference to trumpet that they have endorsed Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton. A few, like John Kerry or John Edwards fly half way across the country amid great secrecy to appear on stage with the grinning candidate at a huge rally. Most at least issue a press release. But one, it seems, might be doing things the old-fashioned way – by putting up a campaign sign in his sitting room window.

"The sign in the senator's window - picture at link

"Officially, neither of Montana’s senators nor the state’s governor has endorsed a candidate before tomorrow’s Democratic primary. But Obama should be feeling confident about Senator Max Baucus, chairman of the Senate finance committee, Harley Davidson enthusiast, ultra-marathon runner and the 10th longest-serving senator in US history. Walking up to the dog park yesterday I spotted an Obama ’08 sign in a window of the senator’s elegant Georgetown house, where he lives with his wife Wanda."

4. To be fair about it
Sen. Kerry was among the very first senators to endorse Obama and you better believe that the Obama campaign not only wanted his endorsement but wanted it in a way that would provide coverage in the news cycles. What better way than to have the 2004 nominee endorse their guy in front of TV cameras?
