Didier wins backing of Palin

Glory-days Redskins player Clint Didier has emerged as game-changer in the Senate race in Washington.

The two-time Super Bowl champion has received a key endorsement from former Alaska Gov. and GOP vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin in a wide-open Republican primary for the seat of incumbent Democrat Patty Murray.

"It caught me a little off-guard," said Mr Didier, who has met Mrs. Palin only once, at a book signing in his home state. "But it was a welcome endorsement that really got me going. But as in football, a touchdown is not the end of the game. I have to keep going."

The endorsement puts Mr. Didier solidly within the class of 2010 that is running as non-establishment candidates and trying to oust incumbents.

Manley cannot read, so he should at least fit right in with the Senate

IIRC, Darrell Green taught him to.
