Scott McClellan endorses Obama

NEW YORK -- Scott McClellan, President Bush's former press secretary, says he is backing Barack Obama for president.

McClellan made the endorsement during a taping of Comedian D.L. Hughley's new show that is premiering on CNN this weekend. The former Bush administration official said he wanted to support the candidate that has the best chance for changing the way Washington works and getting things done.

1. Thanks, but no thanks, Scotty.

I will place your endorsement on the same tier as Lindsay Lohan's.

8. Seems to be once-a-week on the weekend.

"D.L. Hughley Breaks the News"

Shows like that on cable news channels don't last.

Maury Povich and Connie Chung co-hosted a short-lived weekend show on MSNBC.

So did Jesse Ventura. So did Michael Savage.

9. Who's next? Don Rumsfeld?

Obama doesn't need any more endorsements like this.
