I have a sneaking suspicion Gephardt is going to officially endorse him tomorrow with an eye for the Vice-Presidency. He is union and has the Southern vote. Besides, we cannot forget the negative campaigning between Gephardt and Dean in Iowa. So there is some bad blood there for Gephardt to stick it to Dean. And this is Gephardt's chance. Politics.

So a Kerry-Gephardt ticket is also a possibility.

Interesting that Gephardt's supporters are dividing between Edwards and Kerry.

Show me your endorsement

With Missouri's favorite son, Rep. Richard Gephardt, out of the running, the state's political glitterati lined up Tuesday to place their endorsements in advance of next week's suddenly contested primary.

St. Louis Mayor Francis Slay, who was a Gephardt backer, announced his support for Sen. John Kerry, while Lt. Gov. Joe Maxwell and former Kansas City Mayor Emanuel Cleaver endorsed Sen. John Edwards.

Gephardt has been quiet. Jason Norton, who ran Gephardt's Missouri campaign, said he does not anticipate the St. Louis congressman endorsing anyone before the Feb. 3 primary.

Kerry, Edwards and Al Sharpton have scheduled campaign appearances Wednesday in Missouri, where 88 Democratic convention delegates are at stake.
