SEIU Endorses Obama
According to more information from CBS 4 News in Miami Florida, there is the possibility that the SEIU [Service Employee International Union] might endorse Obama for President. This was a decision made by SEIU Leaders after a Conference Call. There is the possibility of a Press Conference by the SEIU later in the day. If this is true, Mrs. Clinton may have problems in the Ohio and Pennsylvania Primaries taking into account that the two states are blue collar states in its majority.
In other news, Representative David Scott has switched from Hillary Clinton to Barack Obama with Representative John Lewis thinking about following Scott. It appears that Mrs. Clinton has been losing support from the African American Community as well as from Women and the White European Community in America.
The SEIU endorsed Obama on the 15th of February 2008 at 1:00PM EST. SEIU President Andy Stern made the official annuncement endorsing Obama stating that the SEIU "recognizes the profound need for change". This came after Obama received a Valentines Day Gift in the form of an endorsement by the United Food and Commercial Workers [UFCW]. I am willing to predict that Obama will give Clinton plenty of problems in Ohio, Texas, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania.

AlvarezGalloso, thanks for this report. Obama is really flying high, the 2 million votes of SEIU is a big deal, obviously.

Why don't you say 'Service Employees...' instead of the obscure SEIU? Seems like the employees of this Vancouver news-site is also taking sides in the US election process.
