These are small steps but it's been a while since we've explicitly had anything like this. No statewide officeholder backed challengers to Clinton, W or Obama. I don't know if Pat Buchanan had any governors or senators endorse him, and he got 38 percent in New Hampshire.
Looks like Vermont has changed governors since I was living next door. I remember the last guy - the one who looked like he wanted to extract gelfling essence for immortality.
