Unexpectedly big
Sometimes it’s the advocacy of individuals that matters most. Other times it’s the unexpected that delivers the big boost: the endorsement from someone important you hadn’t counted on.
New Mexico Governor Richardson’s endorsement of Senator Barak Obama today? Not just big… gigantamente grande. Not just unexpected… una sorpresa total.
Sure, maybe too little too late for the upcoming Pennsylvania primary (then again, maybe not). But think of the impact his support, as a former Clinton adminstration cabinet secretary and U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations and our country’s highest-ranking Hispanic elected official, will have on the insider super-delegates. And it will have positive ripple effects not to mention the needed switch to some positive word of mouth for the Obama campaign.
Say what you will about the intensity and length of the democratic primary, and whether that does more harm than good. But it certainly is a historically rivoting contest. What possibly will be next?
