With the North Carolina presidential primary looming, Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton seemed to pick up some early moment
um with an endorsement from NC Gov. Mike Easley.
Taking a shot at Clinton’s rival, Sen. Barack Obama, Easley said at a press conference this morning:
“It’s time for somebody to be in the White House who understands the challenges we face in this country,” Easley said. “There’s been lots of ‘Yes we can, yes we should.’ Hillary Clinton is ready to deliver.”
Clinton responded to the endorsement by complimenting the Governer.
“The governor and I have something in common — we think results matter.”
Easly’s endorsement will be beneficial for Clinton since he is also a superdelegate. He mentioned that Clinton “gets it” when it comes to addressing issues that voters are concerned about.
The endorsement comes as polls show Clinton closing in on Obama’s lead in the state. The primary is on May 6th
