Obama Endorsement Watch

Before I even finished breakfast Obama picked up two more superdelegates this morning. First was Indiana Rep. Pete Visclosky, the second was Democrats Abroad Chair Christine Schon Marques, who only has half a vote. This makes 9.5 delegates Obama has gained over Hillary between yesterday and thus far today, which pretty much ensures that whatever Hillary gained from her win last night in WV is already gone.

Update: Young Democrat Chairs Awais Khaleel (WI) and Lauren Wolfe (MI) endorsed Obama, but only the Wisconsin superdelegate counts toward Obama vote total at this time. Any Michigan and Florida superdelegates Obama receives will count if/when a deal is reached with the DNC for those states.

Update #2: Obama has also received the endorsement of three more former SEC chairmen. No superdelegates there, just econ street cred.

Update #3: DNC members Lena Taylor of Wisconsin and Mike Morgan of Oklahoma also endorsed Obama.

Update #4: And of course the big surprise of the day was that John Edwards endorsed Obama, and although he isn't a superdelegate, he controls his share of pledged delegates, superdelegates and endorsements, so that will probably loosen a bit of a floodgate.
