Former Biden Supporters endorse Clinton: Hatch and Webber
http://www.hillaryclinton.com/news/release/view/?id=5059

MANCHESTER, NH - MANCHESTER, NH - State Representative Bill Hatch, a former Senator Joe Biden supporter, today announced his endorsement of Hillary Clinton. Rep. Hatch will introduce President Bill Clinton this afternoon when he speaks at Berlin City Hall, just a day after Biden's former New Hampshire Campaign Chair, Representative Jim Ryan, threw his support behind Hillary.

"As a representative from Berlin, I am especially sensitive to the struggles of middle class families. Hillary Clinton has strong plans to lower taxes and create new, good jobs that will benefit us all," said Representative Hatch. "I'm supporting Hillary because she is the most capable of effecting the real change that we so desperately need."
Representative Hatch, a retired small business owner and Vietnam veteran, was elected to his seat in 2006. He has been involved in Democratic politics for nearly 40 years and is an active volunteer in his local community.

"I am honored to have Representative Hatch's support," said Senator Clinton. "I will look to him to let his friends and neighbors in the North County know that if they stand with me on January 8, I will stand with them every day in the White House."

Building on the momentum from two new endorsement announcements, statewide grassroots activities and a flood of national supporters travelling to local communities, Senator Clinton will continue criss-crossing the Granite State working hard to earn every vote.



Former Biden Supporter State Representative Jim Webber Endorses Senator Clinton for President
MANCHESTER, NH - State Representative Jim Webber (D-Kensington), a former Senator Joe Biden supporter, today announced his endorsement of Hillary Clinton. Rep. Webber is the third New Hampshire state representative to announce his support of Senator Clinton in recent days, following the endorsement of Biden’s former New Hampshire Campaign Chair Representative Jim Ryan and State Representative Bill Hatch.

"Today, I am proud to announce my support of Hillary Clinton for president. Senator Clinton has the breadth and depth of knowledge on a wide range of issues that will make her an effective president, starting on day one," Representative Webber said. "At a time when our country faces serious challenges, we need a leader with Hillary’s strength and experience to deliver real change."

Representative Jim Webber won his seat in a special election held on July 31st. He has a background in management consulting, with experience in health care, affordable housing, crisis management and economic development. He has degrees in engineering, business and a PhD in organization development.

"I am honored that Representative Webber is joining our effort," Senator Clinton said. "His respected voice will be critical in making sure his neighbors on the Seacoast know that if they stand up for me on Tuesday, I will stand up for them every day in the White House and deliver the change this country needs."

1. For some reason, I saw "Hatch" and thought "Orrin"
and then I thought, big score for Hillary to get a former GOP presidential candidate to endorse her.
