This diary was inspired by MSNBC breaking into their regular news cycle to cover a speech by Boxer/Schumer. It turned out not to be about the race but rather about an environmental issue that they cared about.
So what? They got free coverage for a while before they pulled the plug. This is a great chance for the Democratic party and the issues we care about.
I call upon Senators, Representatives, and any unpledged groups of Superdelegates. Announce a press conference and say something like:
We would like to make an important endorsement today, but before we get to that, we'd like to explain the reasoning why we came to this decision. It's all about SCHIP.[10 minutes of talking about the importance of this law]
In conclusion, that's why everyone of us on stage would like to announce our endorsement... of the SCHIP bill I will be putting out next week.
Now the press will catch on after a few of these, so that's why you have to mix it up. The next group will be a real SD endorsement, but only after they talked about global warming or poverty issues or Iraq or how great both Clinton and Obama are.
We have a captive audience today. Let's take advantage. It'll be fun!
