Insomniacs are scrambling to digg and post--the AP just reported that Bill Richardson has officially endorsed Obama.

SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) — New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson, the nation's
only Hispanic governor, is endorsing Sen. Barack Obama for president,
calling him a "once-in-a- lifetime leader" who can unite the nation and
restore America's international leadership.

Richardson, who
dropped out of the Democratic race in January, is to appear with Obama
on Friday at a campaign event in Portland, Ore., The Associated Press
has learned.

...

"I
believe he is the kind of once-in-a-lifetime leader that can bring our
nation together and restore America's moral leadership in the world,"
Richardson said in a statement obtained by the AP. "As a presidential
candidate, I know full well Sen. Obama's unique moral ability to
inspire the American people to confront our urgent challenges at home
and abroad in a spirit of bipartisanship and reconciliation."

Hah, I know! I wilted after I hit the reload button and saw your post...but the maniacs at Kos had the jump on us both. ;-)

Yeah, you beat me, too. At least I can go to bed knowing Drudge's blaring red headline will have good news for BHO.
