Obama Endorsement Watch

It's Friday, the last (week)day of a long week of endorsements, and Obama just added another, Rep. Pete Stark, chairman of the House Ways and Means Health Subcommittee. Obama seems to be racking up the powerful committee chairs left and right nowadays.

I'll keep you posted as more endorsements arrive.

Update: Arlene Prather-O’Kane of Iowa, an Edwards pledged delegate is the latest to switch to Obama. This puts Obama only 16 pledged delegates away from winning the primary (the majority of elected delegates).

Update #2: Politico says that at least 8 of Florida's 13 Edwards delegates are switching to Obama, and none to Hillary. Obviously this doesn't give Obama any delegates at the moment, but this assures that even if Hillary manages to get Florida seated as-is, it won't make a damn bit of difference. Excellent news!
