The Week That Was

Submitted by politicalWinters on Fri, 03/21/2008 - 9:15am.

ABC News has a pretty good recap of the ups and downs of Obama and Clinton over the last few days.

Among the highlights:

Gov. Bill Richardson, former presidential candidate, Clinton cabinet secretary, endorses Obama.

Michigan and Florida aren't going to do a recount, which hurts Clinton

Hillary's schedules were publicly released, and the press is having field day poring over them looking for something, anything.

The State Department had a few curious employees who went through Obama's passport and other files, giving the campaign some "righteous outrage" momentum

Everyone is still trying to figure out Obama's comments about his white grandmother - little damage control going on.
