Take a guess

Is Georgia’s “super-superdelegate” making an endorsement in the Democratic race for the White House?

Former President Jimmy Carter nearly, but not quite, came out for Barack Obama.

According to the Associated Press:

Speaking to local reporters Wednesday on a trip to Nigeria, the former Democratic president noted that Barack Obama had won his home state of Georgia and his hometown of Plains.

"My children and their spouses are pro-Obama. My grandchildren are also pro-Obama," he said at a press conference, according to the Nigerian newspaper This Day. "As a superdelegate, I would not disclose who I am rooting for, but I leave you to make that guess."

Oh, you’d better believe it. I think we can look forward to countless hours of guessing by cable television pundits about Carter’s remarks and its impact – or lack thereof - on the race.
