She's backing Barack Obama.
From the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel:
Of the state's "super delegates," who function as free agents in the nomination process, Schroeder is the ninth to back Obama. Two have endorsed Hillary Clinton. The remaining five have not stated a preference.
Greg Borowski has "Schroeder's statement, as released by the Obama campaign":
"After much consideration, I have decided to endorse Senator Barack Obama. My decision came down to electability and who I felt would do a better job of unifying this country for a common purpose. Obama's message of hope and change has touched millions of voters in a way that I haven't seen since the late 1960's. People from every walk of life, young and the not so young, Democrats, Independents and some Republicans, are all rallying around a belief that change can happen if we want it bad enough. With Obama as our nominee, I am confident that this November we will increase our majority in the House and Senate and elect a Democrat to the White House."
I hear this "unifying the country for a common purpose" stuff frequently.
What is that "common purpose"?
Dramatically higher taxes?
Parents telling their children to study and eat healthy foods?
Killing unborn children?
Pulling troops out of Iraq to create a vacuum for Islamic extremists to fill?
A foreign policy based on legitimizing terrorists and tyrants by meeting with them unconditionally?
This "common purpose" needs to be clearly defined. To date, it isn't.
So far, I believe the "common purpose" is a vague hope about a foggy change, and to make room for paramedics to get to women who faint at Obama's political rallies.
Obama talks about being a uniter. He talks the talks but he doesn't walk the walk.
If he really was about unifying the country, Obama would have nothing to do with a church and a pastor that preaches divisiveness and ugliness and a congregation that supports Louis Farrakhan.
I don't see the country being united by Barack Obama, a fringe Leftist.
