DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - Iowa Secretary of State Michael Mauro has endorsed Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Mauro made his announcement Wednesday at an event in Des Moines, according to a Clinton campaign statement. He says the New York senator stands out among the other candidates and doesn't have a "learning curve."

Mauro says no one is more qualified or ready to lead than Clinton.

Clinton says she admires Mauro's commitment to education and that he understands the need for change in Iowa.

A vote counter should not be allowed to endorse anyone IMO. Kinda taints the process.

Emailed to the Sec of State. If any of you want to use this format to send to those public officials and other high profile people who have endorsed Hillary, I would appreciate the help. Thanks.

NOTE: An important civil case, Paul v Clinton, is heading to trial in Los Angeles in 2008. As this case proceeds to discovery, people may be embarrassed that they did not know about the story. They will claim, as Hillary claimed about Norman Hsu, that they knew nothing about it. They were shocked. Here is your heads up so that such embarrassment doesn't happen to you. This communication serves as a record that you were informed.

Michael:

I saw the article regarding your endorsement of Senator Clinton. It is a shame that Hillary has not made full disclosure to you about the case in Los Angeles Superior Court in which she will be testifying before the election. The California Supreme Court will decide, probably by late January, whether she joins her husband as a defendant. During discovery, Hillary's involvement in the solicitation and participation of an illegal hard money, in-kind donation of at least $1.2 million will be revealed.

HERE ARE ALL OF THE DOCUMENTS at hillcap.org

The FEC ruled in Dec. 2005 that the campaign hid over $700,000. When ordered to file a fourth amended report, the campaign reported another fraud in Jan. 2006. A US Attorney's office withheld video evidence while official investigations were proceeding and a criminal trial took place of Hillary's campaign finance director. Just because the NY TIMES and WASHPOST have not informed you, it doesn't mean it didn't happen.

Also involved in the solicitation were her agents, Kelly Craighead and Jim Levin. As a White House employee and not part of any joint fundraising committee, Craighead was not allowed to be involved in directly soliciting a donor to pay for an event that cost over a million dollars.

On tape, you will hear Hillary telling the donor that Craighead has kept her completely briefed. Hillary offers her help and says that "Kelly" will convey what she needs. On tape, Hillary admits to being involved with the solicitation of Cher's performance at the Hollywood Gala. That was all illegal and a major campaign finance felony.

This unedited trailer for HILLARY! UNCENSORED: Banned by the Media was not intended for public use. A website leaked it just over two months ago. On YouTube and Google Videos, it has been viewed by over 3.5 million people. We have just begun initial distribution of the one-hour DVD.

You are free to ignore this. That is fine. But this story is going to be the political tsunami of 2008.

The Republicans are well aware of this case and have been following it carefully. They have been hoping that the timing works out to be able to use it after Hillary is assured of the nomination and their machine can use it for maximum damage.

To be fair, that was a charge that was unfairly used against Katherine Harris in the Florida/2000 attempted hijacking. It is nothing unusual or unethical about elected state officials endorsing candidates of the same party. Doesn't mean that Dems haven't/wouldn't abuse their position (aka Washington and Gregoire) but we need to be consistent.
