HAVANA (Reuters) - Ailing Cuban leader Fidel Castro is tipping Democratic candidates Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama to team up and win the U.S. presidential election.

Clinton leads Obama in the race to be the Democratic nominee for the November 2008 election, and Castro said they would make a winning combination.

At 81, Castro has outlasted nine U.S. presidents since his 1959 revolution turned Cuba into a thorn in Washington’s side by building a communist society about 90 miles offshore from the United States.

This has never been a good thing in the past, to have such a poor example of a man and dictator endorse anyone for office in the United States!

Ask the Cubans exiled here, I am sure they could fill us in on the old man ~ who more than likely is probably dead now. His brother Raul  is running the country, and Castro himself has not been since since July in public. Not even for the mandatory public celebration of his birthday that Cuba must endure.

Interesting endorsment!
