Endorsing the news in a MultiCultClassics Monologue…
• Barack Obama picked up endorsements from The Chicago Tribune, The Chicago Sun-Times, The Los Angeles Times, The Washington Post and The New York Daily News. Gov. Sarah Palin reportedly stopped reading the news about the election because it depressed her. That’s understandable.
• Former Secretary of State Colin Powell endorsed Barack Obama, calling him a “transformational figure.” Powell remarked on NBC’s Meet The Press, “It isn’t easy for me to disappoint Sen. McCain in the way that I have this morning, and I regret that. But I firmly believe that at this point in America’s history, we need a president that will not just continue, even with a new face and with the changes and with some maverick aspects, who will not just continue basically the policies that we have been following in recent years. I think we need a transformational figure. I think we need a president who is a generational change and that’s why I’m supporting Barack Obama, not out of any lack of respect or admiration for Sen. John McCain.” Gov. Sarah Palin will probably stop watching the news about the election too.
• Soul Train creator Don Cornelius was arrested Friday evening on suspicion of felony domestic violence. It wasn’t clear whom Cornelius might have assaulted. But it’s a safe bet Gov. Sarah Palin will try to connect Cornelius to Obama.
