Flagging Tad's comments on Clyburn--wonder if he thinks it's a possibility
and is trying to be respectful of Clyburn while the decision is being made?

JOHN HEILEMANN: i just want to ask you about, i want to talk about barack
obama, we'll talk about that later, just on a specific thing that goes to
endorsements, how bad would it be if jim clyburn would come out.
TAD DEVINE: again, extremely well respected figure, pivot al state coming
up.
JOHN HEILEMANN: with a real machine behind him, right.
TAD DEVINE: sure, with the grassroots campaign, utilized very effectively.
he helped john kerry in 2004, a big help to us.
JOHN HEILEMANN: does that make it impossible in south carolina.
TAD DEVINE: i don't think it's impossible. voters will decide the process.
we're happy we're bringing new people in, particularly young people. a big
advantage for us.

I think he's trying to show he's really thinking about it in prep for
backlash
