    Department of Unwelcome Endorsements

    Posted Thursday, July 24, 2008 3:31 PM | By Christopher Beam

    From the Mississippi Clarion-Ledger:

    PARCHMAN—Before he died Wednesday evening, death row inmate Dale Leo Bishop apologized to his victim's family, thanked America and urged people to vote for Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama.

    "For those who oppose the death penalty and want to see it end, our best bet is to vote for Barack Obama because his supporters have been working behind the scenes to end this practice," Bishop said. …

    Will Obama reject and denounce?
