Excellent Kos Diary: HRC's Pre-Iowa Endorsements Keep Rolling In

The diary discusses the endorsements from the HRC, the Mayor of Flint, MI, and an endorsement from the United Brotherhood of Carpenters (UBC) that I missed from yesterday.
With only a handful of days before the Iowa caucuses, we should probably expect a lot more endorsements...perhaps daily. It can be hard to keep up, so if I missed any, or if more come around early in the morning, feel free to add them in the comments!
The Flint nightmare has put in sharp relief the differences between Sanders and Clinton when it comes to handling real-time crisis situations and making real change, as HuffPost Politics notes:
The HuffPost Politics link mentioned discusses Hillary's activities in re Flint in more detail.
I was chastised yesterday by one of the "purists" who told me that candidates should not campaign in disaster areas. Hillary was on TV and then made some phone calls, but the individual apparently considered that "campaigning in a disaster area" - go figure. The individual also noted that candidates should not campaign on local issues.
I am so thoroughly disgusted by the anti-Hillary mob mentality around DU these days that I have been posting many more OPs than I usually would so that those of us - from ALL camps - who are sane enough to realize that we have three great candidates and should NOT be doing the GOPers' work for them w/r/t ANY one of them can take heart that we are NOT among the mob.
