It’s been a very good day on the endorsement front for Hillary Clinton. Any of these endorsements might have been impressive before Tuesday night, when Clinton took the stage and delivered what was essentially her acceptance of the Democratic nomination.
Hillary Clinton has been endorsed today by: Barack Obama, Michelle Obama, Joe Biden, Elizabeth Warren and Martin O'Malley

Was anyone expecting a Trump endorsement from that bunch?

The most recent of that crew to throw his support behind Clinton is Vice President Joe Biden, whom many were eyeing as an emergency backup in the days when Bernie Sanders was putting a substantial dent in his opponent’s momentum.
Biden seems to be hoping for some divine intervention this November; it’s a good thing the Democrats (begrudgingly) decided to restore God to the party’s official platform.
Biden endorses… "whoever the next president is, and in my view, god willing, it'll be Secretary Clinton"

Biden endorses in his own way. "God willing in my view it'll be Secretary Clinton."

The vice president made his remarks about Clinton “off the cuff” while speaking at the American Constitution Society Conference Thursday night. So, were his remarks really an endorsement? Close enough, says his office.
Biden endorses Clinton—VP's office says it was off the cuff but yes- it's an endorsement-remarks @ American Constitution Society

Joe Biden endorses Hillary Clinton Can it be more clear that the Democratic primary is over? #HillaryClinton #DemocraticPrimaries

Bernie Sanders doesn’t seem to have gotten the message yet, but after Elizabeth Warren went nuclear on Donald Trump today, a lot of people are wishing things had ended on a different note.
Am I the only person who kind of wishes that Biden had run for President? https://t.co/G1v5XpMhl8

Hardly.
I voted Bernie in the primary. I'll vote Hillary in the general. But I wanted Joe. Biden/Warren 2016. If only.https://t.co/Aj0oQ2QOEJ

@MotherJones I was really wanted Biden to run too.

Dammit Joe Biden if you'd have RUN for office we wouldn't be in his trash heap of an election.

Everybody's favorite candidate either didn't run or didn't win. Biden. Warren. Bernie. We flirted with them all. Wasn't meant to be.
— (((RuggedAmethyst))) (@GrooveSDC) June 10, 2016
Jesus Biden, why didn't you run?
— Janie Rotten (@DreddByDawn) June 10, 2016
The Biden/Warren ticket would have been everything I wanted in life, as today proves.
