Democrats' party chief casts his lot with Obama By Brian C. Mooney, Globe Staff | March 9, 2007
Philip W. Johnston, the Massachusetts Democratic Party chairman who served in the Clinton administration, declared his support yesterday for Senator Barack Obama, Senator Hillary Clinton's top rival for the party's presidential nomination.
Alerts Calling Obama "the future of our party," Johnston also said the first-term Illinois Democrat's strong opposition to the war in Iraq was an important factor in his decision. Johnston, who met with Obama last week in Washington, said he will join the candidate's national finance committee and offer advice on healthcare.
Johnston, who plans to step down this spring as state party chairman, was appointed New England regional administrator of the US Department of Health and Human Services during President Clinton's first term. He now operates a healthcare consulting business.

LOL. Read the headline and thought it said "OSAMA." My first thought was, "big deal." So another dem's throwing in his lot with the terrorists. Why is this news?
:-) Hi doug from upland,

Communist dictator and from Obama supporters no less.
This is going to stick.
I didn't see it. THAT IS FREAKING OUTSTANDING!!!
If they end up running together, what difference will it make?
I suspect that may be the plan.
Mmm. He'd better pick his airline flights carefully.
"I suspect that may be the plan."
Exactly. So why isn't our strategy different? We should be throwing them together...presenting them as a very faulty team.
:-) Cool, huh?
