Mondale Planning to Endorse Hillary?

The Hill reports that former Vice President Walter Mondale is planning to endorse Hillary Clinton for president sometime soon.

As noted in the Hill's report, a Mondale endorsement would be particularly appropriate, considering that Mondale's running mate, Geraldine Ferraro, made history 23 years ago as the first woman to be nominated for vice president by a major party.

As usually happens to "historic firsts," the Mondale-Ferraro ticket was handily beaten in the general election -- by the Reagan-Bush ticket that was seeking a second term.
