"Endorsements you don't want" department
Another well-known Republican is backing Obama, but I don't think the Democrats will be trumpeting this one:
There have been so many scandals since October, 2006, the month that I launched this blog, that I just about forgot who Mark Foley was.I got an excited phone call yesterday from two friends, TV producer Richard Ayoub and talent manager Dolores Cantu, who were having lunch at the Beverly Hills Hotel. Sitting the next table over was Foley, who resigned just before the midterms after the revelation that he sent inappropriate e-mail messages to a congressional page.
[...]
What they both said was how great Foley looked, and he was particularly excited about Colin Powell's endorsement that morning of Obama. Foley said he also favors Obama.
