BREAKING: Wesley Clark Endorses Hillary Clinton

Days Until Bush Leaves Office = 493

Former general Wesley Clark has endorsed New York Senator Hillary Clinton for president.

Speaking to reporters via a conference call, Clark said, "I'm very pleased today to announce my endorsement for Hilary Clinton for President of the United States. I think she'll be a great Commander in Chief  for our men and women in uniform."

General Clark, the former NATO Supreme Commander who oversaw military operations during the Kosovo war, was himself briefly a presidential candidate in the 2004 campaign, before dropping out and eventually endorsing John Kerry.

I'll be back later this afternoon with some thoughts about this development.
