So Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa endorses and campaigns for Senator Clinton, but now that the heat is on, he gets all ambiguous and supportive of Obama on the Tavis Smiley Show? It's unfortunate that he can't step up to the plate and support Hillary when he is considered one of her main supporters, especially now when she needs it. Obama and Clinton are not the same, and the cause for supporting a democratic candidate should not trump supporting the individual based on their ability, strength, and merit.
This is the time when Mayor I'm-not-voting-for-him-next-time, and other supporters, need to keep their word and learn how to follow-through and speak smartly and coherently on behalf of those they campaign for. Villaraigosa's ambiguousness and equal praise for both candidates made him appear as a fairweather supporter who would back anyone who was ahead in the polls. Shame on you, Villaraigosa. Get it together and use these media opportunities wisely, or get out of the way.
