Tom Vilsack endorses Hillary Clinton.

Just a month after terminating his own campaign for President, former Iowa Governor Tom Vilsack has endorsed Hillary Clinton. This actually took me as a surprise to hear this. Vilsack, who has voiced that the troops should be removed from Iraq immediately is in a sense a polar opposite to Hillary on the issue. Clinton voted for the war and to this day refuses to call her vote a mistake. If he was really wanting the troops to come home now, it would have been in his best interest to endorse Dennis Kucinich. Kucinich the 6 term congressman from Ohio voted against the war in Iraq and has voted against every appropriation, including being one of only 14 democrats to do so this past Friday.

Well I guess you can see Vilsack's thinking as he has now placed himself the front runner as vice president nominee if Clinton would secure the nomination. But it is a shame that to most in politics, personal gain means more that fighting the good fight.
