Kerry Picks Up Va. Governor's Endorsement

[Desperadoe]

WASHINGTON (AP) - Democrats Wesley Clark, Howard Dean and John Edwards said Sunday they will not be deterred by John Kerry's decisive wins in Michigan and Washington state and will stay in the presidential race indefinitely. Kerry criticized President Bush on the Iraq war while picking up another endorsement.

Clark told CNN's "Late Edition" that he expected to do well in contests in Tennessee and Virginia on Tuesday, and in Wisconsin on Feb. 17. But even if he didn't win in any of those states, Clark pledged to remain in the race at least through the March 2 "Super Tuesday" primaries, including in California, Ohio and New York.

"We've got a lot of support across this country," said Clark, a retired Army general. "We do expect to go on and do expect to be there on Super Tuesday."

In separate interviews on "Fox News Sunday" and ABC's "This Week," Edwards noted that some 75 percent of delegates to the Democratic National Convention will be up for grabs after the Wisconsin primary.

1. What was that Pink Floyd song again?

Welcooooooome to the Machine

Don't flame me; I'll support Kerry, no prob. But the way these front-runner politicians work with their endorsements is like watching civilization with its pants down.

And by the way, which one's Pink?

2. He could have waited till after the primary

But why would anyone want an election decided by the people?
