Democratic Candidates Find Endorsement From Obama Is The Kiss Of Death

Obama endorsements sunk two more Democratic candidates this month as his political capital continues to wane along with his popularity in the face of widespread voter rebellion.

Senator Benedict Arlen Specter became the fourth Democrat in seven months to lose a high-profile election despite active involvement in the campaign by Obama. The Associated Press, in their infinite wisdom, said that this is "raising doubts about Obama's ability to help fellow Democrats in this November's elections." You think?

The first three all fell to Republicans. Specter's loss Tuesday to Representative Joe Sestak in Pennsylvania's Democratic senatorial primary proves, unequivocally, that Obama's influence and popularity - even within his own party - is sinking fast. And he's taking Democratic candidates down with him.
