Former U.S. Rep. Lee Hamilton (D-Indiana) endorsed Barack Obama this morning. Endorsements are always good news but in the case of Hamilton's endorsement, it's great news: the guy's got serious cred. Hamilton co-chaired the 9/11 Commission and also co-chaired President Bush's bi-partisan Iraq Study Group. He's considered a leading authority on foreign policy and had a storied, decades-long congressional career.

The Indiana primary will be held two weeks after the Pennsylvania primary. As my cousins from Indianapolis reminded me this past weekend, Indiana is definitely in play -- it has very different demographics than Pennsylvania.

Yippee! It's a good day in the neighborhood, as our friend (and fellow Pittsburgher) Mr. Rogers liked to say.
