Dem congressman Heath Schuler has not endorsed Barack Obama


Dem Congressman Heath Schuler says he has been too busy to endorse presumptive Democratic nominee Barack Obama. Politico:

Rep. Heath Shuler, a freshman Democrat from right-leaning North Carolina, has also been too busy to endorse. After Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton carried his district in the North Carolina primary, Shuler said he would cast his superdelegate vote for her at the Democratic convention.

Now that Clinton is out of the race? “We’ve gone back to his work up there in the House,” said Shuler spokesman Andrew Whalen. “We’re not really too focused on the presidential [race].”

Schuler comes from a center-right district in North Carolina. I imagine he will fall in line as Nancy Pelosi and the party leaders put the pressure on him to get with the program.
