Major Endorsement for Obama

Monday, October 20th, 2008

…and I don’t mean Colin Powell.

Boris Johnson, the Mayor of London, wrote in today/tomorrow’s Telegraph, arguing for an Obama presidency. [The Daily Telegraph]

And this endorsement comes right on the heels of another pro-Obama piece on le Torygraph, by Daniel Hannan. [The Daily Telegraph]

The Daily Telegraph thinks that Senate seats can be inherited

Monday, September 8th, 2008

Discovered this other bit while reading the day’s Daily Telegraph:

Beau Biden, 39, elder son of Senator Joe Biden, Mr Obama’s running mate, is scheduled to go to Iraq early next year. Beau Biden is attorney general of Delaware and a captain in the legal corps of the US Army’s National Guard. He is in line to inherit his father’s Senate seat should Mr Obama win the White House.

Damn Tories. They must be forgetting in a fit of wishful thinking that even their own House of Lords no longer has inheritable seats.
