Spitzer Endorses Clinton

Really, this shouldn't be a big shock.

The powerful Governor of New York endorses the power Senator from New York for President.

Clinton has the support of nearly every elected Democrat in New York State, including Senator Chuck Schumer, Representatives Tim Bishop, Steve Israel, Gregory Meeks, Gary Ackerman, Joseph Crowley, Jerrold Nadler, Nydia Velasquez, Carolyn Maloney, Eliot Engel, Nita Lowrey, John Hall, Kirsten Gillibrand, Maurice Hinchey, Mike Arcuri, and Brian Higgins, and numerous state and local Democrats.

One Democrat from New York not endorsing Clinton, State Senator Bill Perkins (D-Harlem) who holds Lt. Governor David Paterson's old State Senate seat, has endorsed Barack Obama.

UPDATE: Hillary received the endorsement of another new Democratic governor, Martin O'Malley (D-Maryland).
