Obama Ties Clinton With 19 Legislative Endorsements

10 Dec 2007

DES MOINES – The Obama Campaign today announced that State Representative Paul Shomshor of Council Bluffs endorsed Senator Barack Obama’s Presidential Campaign. Shomshor is the 19th state legislator to endorse Senator Obama – placing him even with Senator Hillary Clinton for members of the state legislature who have endorsed his campaign.

“Barack Obama spent his two decades in public service fighting for families trying to achieve the American dream, and he’ll continue that fight as President,” said Rep. Shomshor. “It only proves that he’ll be a President that will change politics as usual, unite America and make progress on the issues are families care about the most.

Shomshor was first elected in 2003, chairs the Ways and Means Committee and serves on the Natural Resources and State Government Committees.

“This campaign has been built with the support of everyday people across Iowa who are ready to change the way politics is done in Washington, D.C.” Senator Obama said. “I’m proud to have the support of Rep. Shomshor and I look forward to working with him to continue to grow our grassroots movement for change.”

2. If the puppy dog endorsed Obama the Bama Lama's would want
it praised. They are nuts. They think someone acting like an America Idol could ever get the nomination.
