John Lewis for Hillary

October 12, 2007 / by thinline

Another black leader picks Hillary over Obama

AP reporting:

NEW YORK - Democratic Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton has earned the endorsement of John Lewis, the longtime Georgia congressman and leader in the 1960s civil rights movement.

Clinton and Lewis were scheduled to hold a campaign event Friday in Atlanta to discuss the endorsement.

"I have looked at all the candidates, and I believe that Hillary Clinton is the best prepared to lead this country at a time when we are in desperate need of strong leadership. She will restore a greater sense of community in America, and reclaim our standing in the world," Lewis said in a statement released by the Clinton campaign.

The endorsement is a setback to Barack Obama, who is seeking to become the first black president and has counted on support from black leaders to spark his candidacy.

 OUCH

Barack, did you think black leaders would support you just because of the color of your skin?  ThinLine is not at all suggesting that Mr. Lewis did not endorse you or that the black community is not supporting you because of  your disgraceful response to Katrina……but the fact remains that it is be a long time before a lot of people forget that while residents of New Orleans were still fighting for survival, you and Oprah were taking a cushy, air conditioned, bottled water stocked plane to the cushy, air conditioned, bottled water stocked Astrodome in Houston along with Barbara Bush to show just how concerned you were. Yeah, thanks a lot.

HEY BARACK, LOOKS LIKE ANOTHER LEVEE BROKE
