Amid a barrage of media (2) / blogger criticism, Jim Matheson (R-UT) finally figured out how silly he was being.

From KSL:

(KSL News) Utah Rep. Jim Matheson says he is backing Sen. Barack Obama’s bid for the White House.

Up until today, Matheson had refused to reveal who he would support at the Democratic National Convention in August. But now that Barack Obama is the Democrat’s presumptive presidential nominee, he said he will support him.

Seriously … what the hell?
