Hillary Still Gaining Ohio Endorsements

By Jeralyn

According to the cable news shows and some polls today, Obama has the Democratic nomination all but sewn up.

As we wrote earlier, two polls in Ohio show Hillary with a ten point lead.

She's also picking up endorsements. Today, she was endorsed by the Akron Beacon Journal even though it recognized Barack Obama seems to be the party's favorite.

Many Ohioans surely will join the chant ''Yes, we can!'' in the coming days. They may do so thinking about ''electability.'' This editorial page has in mind the question of which candidate would make the stronger president, which candidate is more prepared for all the Oval Office presents its occupant, and the many challenges before the country at home and abroad.

We recommend a vote for Hillary Clinton in the March 4 presidential primary.

She also received the endorsement today of a dozen Cleveland officals and community leaders , adding to more than 20 who have previously endorsed her.

There are a lot of Hillary supporters who read this site. The best thing they can do for her is send her money so she can continue to compete in the ad war in Ohio and Texas.

We saw in New Hampshire how far off polls can be. When she was ahead in the national polls, her opponents said they don't count, only state polls count. Well, she's ahead in Ohio and holding her own in Texas. She's done her part, now it's up to voters and her supporters.

The media and her opponents count her out at their peril. They could well end up with egg on their faces, just like after New Hampshire. It's not over.
