This is a good endorsement for O’Donnell. As others have correctly pointed out, Dole was considered by many to be the classic centrist Republican when he was in the Senate. How much influence his endorsement will have in 2010 is unclear, but to the extent that it does, I only see upsides for O’Donnell.
Good on ya, Mr. Dole!
I have been privileged to know Senator Dole personally for the last 4 years. While politically, he is not as conservative as I would like, I echo earlier posts to state that he has CLASS (with a capital C). As was true many times in the past, he has stepped up to serve his country.
