Never said that the endorsement had helped her. I thought it would & made note that that particular endorsement is viewed as a key one by the media & the candidates. I think it's a bit to early to say one way or the other. You'll note that I didn't say anything about the poll that showed her leading at 40 percent. Rasmussen now shows that Clinton has gone up to 42 percent since then. If other polls start reflecting their findings over the next week then I'll say she probably benefitted from the endorsement.

Fair play!
