2 more congressional endorsements for Obama today (Oberstar, Blumenauer)
Reps. Jim Oberstar (D-Minn.) and Earl Blumenauer (D-Ore.) endorsed Sen. Barack Obama for president Friday, adding two more House endorsements to the quickly rising total of the Illinois Democrat.

“This week helped me make up my mind between two great candidates – that I was going to be supporting Sen. Obama,” Blumenauer said.

Oberstar, the 17-term chairman of the House Transportation Committee, had initially endorsed former Sen. John Edwards (D-N.C.), who has dropped out of the race.

1. Blumenauer should help boost Obama in the Portland area.
I think he was doing well there already.
