Hillary keeps throwing out the experience card against Obama, and yet the older/experienced Senators keep endorsing Obama. Here are some quotes from Leahy:
----
"We need a president who can reintroduce America to the world, and reintroduce America to ourselves," Leahy said, later adding, "Barack Obama represents the America we once were and want to be again."
Leahy likened his support of Obama to the 1968 presidential campaign, when as a young prosecutor he endorsed Robert Kennedy over Hubert Humphrey. "He was bringing us a sense of hope, bringing us together," Leahy said. "I know those are intangibles, but it encouraged me to go against the establishment in my own state, and go with Bobby Kennedy."

I know most of the electorate does not spend much time looking at blogs or analyzing what endorsements like this mean, but if they did, I think Hillary would be in even more trouble.
Here is a Senator who has spent 3 decades in the Senate. You have to, no matter who you are, wonder why he would endorse Obama over Hillary. If Obama was not experienced enough to be President, these endorsements would not be happening.
