Poll question: Who would you consider the crème de la crème of endorsements?

(Note!! - this is only assuming VP Al Gore and General Clark opt not to run .. Hopefully, BOTH of them will! )

If you're the candidate -- and you're hoping to score some stellar endorsements, which ONE Democrat would you consider the most valuable endorsement?

Would it be someone listed.. ..or someone else?

(I didn't add President Clinton since we all know who he's endorsing )

1. Oprah
Seriously.

After that, Jimmy Carter and the AFL-CIO.

3. Hmm..

I never thought about Oprah's impact.. .. but it would only be if she's willing to be vocal about who she's supporting and get out there and campaign with them..

5. Other--Jim Webb
I think Clark will run. I also think Webb would trust Wes Clark to do the best by his son over in Iraq---so if Webb ever endorses anyone, it might well be Clark.

6. I wish Webb had more experience. Clark/Webb is incredible.
But yes, Webb's endorsement is key as well. I think General Clark would receive it too!!

7. Joe Lieberman (Ind CT) he'll kiss the arse of the likliest winner
a bit like a remorrha fish, he'll attach himself to the butt of the biggest fish he can find then cruise along in their wake.

10. Al Gore's endorsement would be the crème de la crème of endorsements
I don't expect Gore to endorse anyone before the nomination has been determined.
