Mon, January 21, 2008 - 1:32 PM
Democratic Rep. Rick Boucher announced his endorsement of Barack Obama today, saying the senator from Illinois has the broadest appeal in the race for the presidency.Boucher, D-9th, said Obama inspires hope in a way that can attract independents and Republicans like no other Democrat.
“I represent a rural district of 27 counties and cities in southwestern Virginia. George Bush received 60 percent of the vote in my district in 2004,” Boucher said in a statement. “I believe Senator Obama can carry it in 2008, and no other Democratic candidate can.”
