    The importance of endorsements are sometimes minimal, but they are nice nonetheless. Casey's endorsement of Obama is another way to bring some positive news to his campaign, instead of more damaging Rev. Wright headlines. Casey may be able to help Obama in Pa., but with Clinton's heavy-hitting roster of Pennsylvania politicians, which include Gov. Rendell, Philadelphia Mayor Nutter, Rep. Murtha and Pittsburg Mayor Ravenstahl, it will be an uphill battle for Obama to win over a...

    McCain Can't Quit John Hagee

    Your Daily Politics Video Blog: There's been a lot of chatter over the last few days about John McCain's embrace of Pastor John Hagee, who's well-known for a history of anti-Catholicism and claims that God will send terrorists to create a "bloodbath" in America for its support of a two state solution in Israel/Palestine. So what is it exactly that Hagee's said and just how much has McCain cozied up to him? We thought we'd put all the choicest moments into one quick video so...

    In a surprising boost for Senator Barack Obama, the International Brotherhood of Teamsters will announce this afternoon that it is endorsing him, a top union leader said.

    With the Teamsters’ move, labor leaders said, Change to Win, a five-million-member coalition of unions that broke away from the A.F.L.-C.I.O., will likely vote on Thursday to endorse Mr. Obama.

    The seven unions in that coalition — the service employees, the food and commercial workers, the Teamsters, the...
