MA-1 (my old district) voted pretty solidly for Clinton (56% of the two-way vote), so that's an interesting endorsement there.

Remember the entire Democratic delegation of WV endorsed Obama.

Rep. Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick (MI) for Obama

MSNBC also has another one committed (their count down to 35), but I can't figure out who it is yet...

I think 12 for Obama, worth 9 in the count, and it's barely past lunch-time.

That seems a bit excessive, but maybe. Tester, Baucus and Schweitzer have made it clear that they plan to endorse Obama late tonight (maybe tomorrow, but probably tonight).

I read something earlier that said all the Senators and quite a few House folks were planning on doing it right after polls closed. Regardless, I think it's clear he's going to get enough to clinch today
