In fact, I sort of felt that way about incumbents endorsing incumbents more generally, but whatever.  That said, I pleased to realize that my first reaction isn’t widely shared, and people see endorsing candidacies as just expressing enthusiasm for the people and process rather than as some sort of strategic manipulation, or even a final vote commitment.  Thus liberated, I can say that I am very happy to see the candidacy of Carlos II, with whom I worked on the GNSO Council.
