Endorsements Keep Rolling In

By now, everyone's heard this, but Ted Kennedy is endorsing Obama. Two Kennedys in the house. Nice.

Also, rumor has it that Kathleen Sebelius, the popular, rising-star-type Demo governor of Kansas is set to endorse Obama on Tuesday. The day after giving the Demo response to the State of the Union address. Absolutely perfect. If true. 

Better still, the House of Representative's highest-ranking Latino, California Rep. Xavier Becerra, has announced that he is backing Obama. This is particularly important given concerns over whether Latinos will vote for a black candidate (an obnoxious meme that will hopefully be put out of circulation Super Tuesday). The fact that he's a Californian is doubly helpful given the state's 370 electoral votes and Hillary's institutional advantage there.
