Well Koch has just said that they won't back anyone in the GOP primary.

Clearly meaning they will back someone in the Democratic primary.

Definitely Sanders, don't you think? Lol.

Luke Messer (IN-6) endorses El Jeb. The Article calls him the "fifth-ranking member of the House," but I have no idea where the get that.

Clinton was still opposed to same sex marriage when the lawsuit was first filed.

taking a look at the 538 Endorsement page, it seems Hillary has picked up quite a few in the last week...

11/17   John P. Sarbanes   Rep. (D-Md.)   1
11/17   C. A. Dutch Ruppersberger   Rep. (D-Md.)   1
11/17   Donna F. Edwards   Rep. (D-Md.)   1
11/17   Alan Grayson   Rep. (D-Fla.)   1
11/16   Ruben Gallego   Rep. (D-Ariz.)   1
11/14   Jay Inslee   Gov. (D-Wash.)   10
11/14   Suzan DelBene   Rep. (D-Wash.)   1
11/14   Denny Heck   Rep. (D-Wash.)   1
11/13   Joe Donnelly   Sen. (D-Ind.)   5
11/13   Eleanor Holmes Norton   Del. (D-D.C.)   1
11/13   Ann Kirkpatrick   Rep. (D-Ariz.)   1
11/11   Corrine Brown   Rep. (D-Fla.)   1
11/11   Gwen Moore   Rep. (D-Wis.)   1
11/11   Tony Cárdenas   Rep. (D-Calif.)   1

Biggest loss there to Sanders is probably Grayson.

On the GOP side in the last week there have been 2 endorsements, the previously mentioned Steve King for Cruz and Luke Messer (R-IN). for Bush.

Grayson endorsing Hillary really does seem out of left field. You'd think he would be going after the Bernie voters considering his own primary. Of course, endorsing Bernie could've backfired as well, so it probably would've been smartest to stay out of it.

Yeah. I'm sure that the primary helped decide who he would endorse. If he stuck hard to Bernie, winning the primary would've been much harder. I think it was a good strategic choice for Greyson. There's a lot more Hillary voters than Bernie voters, especially in Florida.
