College Dem Super Delegates endorse Obama…

….and thereby endorse the most liberal and inexperienced candidate the Democrats could have nominated.
Barack Obama’s rock star-like reception among young voters has been one of the biggest stories of the presidential campaign.
So, it’s not stunning that this morning, he announced the support of the president and vice president of the College Democrats of America, who are superdelegates. They pledged to help get their peers to work for Obama.
“We reached out to college students nationwide through Facebook, MySpace and YouTube and the responses were overwhelming. College students want change — and Senator Obama offers an opportunity for all of us to move forward in this country to talk about the issues that matter,” the group’s president, Lauren Wolfe said in a statement provided by the Obama camp.
Added the group’s vice president, Awais Khaleel: “As college students, we’ve come of age under the failed leadership of George W. Bush and we are excited that we finally have a candidate who speaks to our issues. Senator Obama is talking about the issues we care about as college students – whether that’s college affordability or ending the Iraq war.”

They’ve come of age under their own failed leadership, the College Dems are a joke.

Thank God we’ve not had any updates in over 2 days. It’s only 2008, not like anything is happening.
