Andrews also said Obama 'inspires' him. He also said Clinton was 'pandering to seek political gain' by offering a gas tax holiday. Andrews allegiance shift is could be seen as a message to the Clintons that the race for Super Delegates is slipping away.

Barack ObamaRepublican Ron Paul, Representative of Texas and candidate for the Republican party Presidential nomination has reached the top of the charts. His book, The Revolution, A Manifesto is number one on Amazon's book list. Paul is technically still in the Presidential race, he said as long as he has support he will continue to campaign. Last week at the Republican convention in Nevada, his loyal supporters closed the convention down, the problems with the convention have not yet been resolved and the Nevada Republican party has had to postpone awarding its delegates.

And finally, Guam holds its primary tomorrow. The American territory has three delegates at stake.
