I love Doyle and all (especially after sitting by him in the VIP Section hosted by BetUS a few years back and seeing a gaggle of young tramps hovering around him), but does his endorsement really mean much?

Even though he stands to win some money if Sen. Hillary Clinton becomes president, 10-time World Series of Poker bracelet winner Doyle Brunson recently wrote in his blog that he's backing Sen. Barack Obama:

"I have come to the conclusion that poker players have to support Obama. We can't possibly let McCain be our President because he supports most of George W. Bush's views. Hillary has lots of experience but I don't think she is ready to lead our nation. Imagine her trying to talk to the leaders of the Islamic world? I wish we could have her husband back, but we can't. Jennifer Harman and I have emailed Obama and asked what his position is on internet gaming. Hopefully we will get a response from his camp."
