@Reality-based Liberal
This is only an endorsement if you assume, as you seem to be, that being an experience "commander-in-chief" is essential to being President. Clinton did not at any time say that she wanted McCain as President. A lot of people have said nice things aobut Clinton, McCain, or Obama without "endorsing" them. You can't have it both ways: either experience is the single most important factor in choosing a President, in which case Clinton's words do essentially amount to an endorsement of McCain over Obama, or experience is secondary, in which case Clinton's words do not amount to an endorsement, only a comparison of a single character required by a President.
