with supporters like this, who needs opponents?

not that we are pulling for sen. clinton, but we do have to feel a bit sorry for her, when her own supportes are predicting an obama win. cnn:

a key hillary clinton supporter appeared to be a bit off message during a recent interview with a canadian radio station.

"if i had to make a prediction right now, i'd say barack obama is going to be the next president," missouri rep. emanuel cleaver said in a canadian public radio interview this weekend. "i will be stunned if he's not the next president of the united states."

cleaver, an african-american, endorsed clinton's white house bid last year and formally remained aligned with the new york senator even as other black leaders shifted their support to barack obama.

but after his district voted for obama in the february 5 primary, cleaver did indicate he would consider voting for the illinois senator at the party's convention if the delegate count was extremely tight between the two candidates.

don't let james carville hear about it!
