Another Washed-Up RINO for Obama

Former Massachusetts Governor William Weld, who nobody has heard from since the Clinton administration, came out and read a press release written for him by his new boss, Barack Obama. Or whoever it is who ghostwrites Obama rhetorical pablum.

Former Governor William Weld of Massachusetts is the latest Republican to cross over and support Democrat Barack Obama for president.

Weld held a press conference in Salem, N.H. to announce his endorsement. While Massachusetts is a slam dunk for Obama, neighboring New Hampshire is a competitive state.

"Senator Obama is a once-in-a-lifetime candidate who will transform our politics and restore America's standing in the world," Weld said in a statement. "We need a president who will lead based on our common values and Senator Obama demonstrates an ability to unite and inspire. Throughout this campaign I've watched his steady leadership through trying times and I'm confident he is the best candidate to move our country forward."

Way to support the party, Bill. I guess this example of tremendous courage allows you to still attend all those DC cocktail parties you're so fond of.

By the way, can anyone cite an example of Obama's steady leadership? What has he led other than a credit card fraud enterprise? And how exactly is he going to restore our standing in the world when every despot on the planet is waiting to pounce according to Joe Biden? Is that restoring our standing bit code for reducing us to paper tiger status again? Sure, everyone will just love us when we have fecklessness at the top.
