Backing Obama
Sen. Patrick Leahy and Rep. Peter Welch, Vermont's Democratic members of the congressional delegation, announced Thursday they will back Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois for the party's presidential nomination. Said Welch: "I have great admiration for all the Democratic candidates in the race. But it is Barack Obama who has brought new energy into the political process, inspiring all Americans to believe that it is possible to restore America's promise at home and in the world."
Said Leahy: "We need a president who can reintroduce America to the world and actually reintroduce America to ourselves. I believe Barack Obama is the best person to do that."
*******UPDATE******** Sen. Bernie Sanders won't be endorsing a presidential candidate, according to his staff. This from press secretary Will Wiquist: "The independent Senator from Vermont won't be endorsing any candidate inthe Democratic Party primaries. He will do everything he can to helpthe eventual Democratic nominee move the country in a different direction." - Terri Hallenbeck
