And Obama negates the superdelegate loss from this morning when Senator Clinton announced the Governor Easley endorsement in North Carolina.
This pickup was reported today and it carries with it a boon for Senator Obama, who is seeking inroads into the upcoming Kentucky primary where some polls have him down by 20-30 points. According to wikipedia, Chandler is considered a "blue dog" Democrat--precisely the demographic with which the pundits have declared Obama needs improvement.
Chandler is also a political legacy in the Bluegrass State, as his father Albert Chandler served as Governor and Senator for Kentucky. This endorsement could be analogous to the Senator Casey endorsement for Obama in Pennsylvania.
I will run an update on the new status of the race, complete with the week's endorsements, in a few days, as I am feeling that there are still several superdelegate announcements to be made in the next few days.
