Today another pop star has decided to endorse Barack, but this time, he's a real-life hero, not an intergalactic one (see Day Sixteen). The Boss himself--Bruce Springsteen to the culturally uninitiated--has officially put his support behind the Illinois Senator, the Guardian reported today. "Like most of you, I've been following the campaign and I have now seen and heard enough to know where I stand. Senator Obama, in my view, is head and shoulders above the rest," Springsteen said. This move couldn't have come at a better time, as Obama's opponents are still putting him on the ropes for his remarks that offended some Americans in areas most affected by industrial drought in the U.S. Springsteen's songs carry an especially heavy weight in states like Pennsylvania, where the predominantly-working class population will host its primary next Tuesday.
Thanks, Boss.
