Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton just clinched another endorsement from top Hispanic Democrat Rep. Ben Ray Luján of New Mexico, days before voters cast their ballots in a slew of Super Tuesday states next week.

"Hillary has the determination to defend and expand our country's economic and social progress, and to continue to break down barriers and move our country forward so that opportunity reaches everyone," Luján, the second most senior Hispanic member of Congress and a former vice chair of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, said in a statement Friday. "Every job matters to Hillary and she believes all Americans should have the dignity of a paycheck to raise their families, put a roof over their head, and store away a little money for their children's education at the end of each month."

Luján, who serves as chair of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee in charge of electing Democrats to the House in 2016, also pointed to Clinton's electability ratings as one reason she's drawn his support.

"Hillary has strength, compassion and a sense of responsibility to care for others that is second to none," Luján said. "She has what it takes to connect with a diverse group of voters across the country and will fight to motivate and unite people behind her, which will benefit all Democrats come November."

2. I must say, I admire the campaign's ability to turn up the heat

to mix metaphors, they are just turning the screws tighter and tighter and I think that's definitely where some of the frustration from the Sanders campaign is coming from. When you see Tad Devine interviewed these days, he looks like a man who knows he's on the rack.
