ST. PAUL, Minn.: Garrison Keillor, host of public radio's "A Prairie Home Companion," has endorsed Democratic Sen. Barack Obama for president, Obama's campaign announced Sunday. Obama also won backing from a key backer of former candidate John Edwards.
"I'm happy to support your candidacy, which is so full of promise for our country," Keillor, the best-selling author and humorist wrote in a letter declaring his support.

Gary Keillor has been depressed for the past seven years. Now he's happy and excited.

Well, that should wrap up the preening, vapid, elitist vote. Garrison Keillor is a self containing smug storm.

I didn’t know Keillor was a former NARAL pro-choice America president. That’s the way the headline looks.

His “folksy” program is a guise. Garrison is
dyed-in-the-wool, mean hearted leftist. There is nothing warm or
fuzzy about this fraud who portrays himself as an “awe shucks” down home good ole boy.
His endorsement of Obama is as anemic as an
albino toad. Heck, he look’s like one.

Lake Woebegone needed abortions to assure all the kids left were “a little above average.”
