Unsurprisingly, Mondale endorses Hillary. HRC camp writes the very familiar sounding endorsement.

"America is ready for change, and Hillary Clinton has the strength and experience to deliver it," Mondale said in a statement released by the campaign. "Hillary is uniquely qualified to rebuild America's standing in the world and lead this nation from her first day in the White House."

1. So Mondale DIDN'T endorse Hillary?

I fail to follow where you're going with this one.

2. They fired up the copy machine and solicited a signature?

4. So you're saying the staff is lazy and should be fired?

Or what, exactly? How old is Mondale?

5. Why wouldn't a Democrat accept a Democrat's endorsement?

Oh, wait. You're trying to be clever.

7. not really trying to be clever.

Mondale has been the whipping boy for party centrists since I've been on DU. I just wouldn't have thought that the Clinton campaign would necessarily welcome the endorsement of such a pariah. I mean, is Dukakis next?

6. She has Mondale and McGovern in her camp now

I suppose Kerry and Gore will be next, followed by the descendants of Adlai Stevenson and William Jennings Bryan.

9. You forgot Dukakis

I wonder if Dukakis would endorse HRC... that would be the trifecta!

10. Didn't Hillary's husband name Mondale ambassador to Japan?

If so, then the endorsement makes sense.

11. Bad omen, for Hillary.

Ever since we nominated him we keep chosing the same style of candidate and always lose.
the reason her husband won was he was not a clone of Mondale.
