Congressman Allen to announce endorsement at 10:30am
From: http://www.wmtw.com/news/16236591/detail.html

"PORTLAND, Maine -- Congressman and U.S. Senate candidate Tom Allen will announce his choice for president today. Allen is a superdelegate to the Democratic National Convention. Senators Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are competing for support of remaining superdelegates nationwide. Allen will make his announcement at a press conference at 10:30 a.m. Monday at his campaign headquarters in Portland."

Doesn't say who he is endorsing, but my money is on Obama. Obama won his district 63% to 37% and won Maine 59% to 40%. Expect this to be the first superdelegate of today for Obama.

2. He could go either way
He's had a great friendship with the Clintons since Rhodes scholar days. But if I had to bet, I'd say he goes with Obama.

But my opinion and 42 cents gets you stamp these days.
