Second Female Senator Endorses Obama

quote[Freshman Sen. Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota, who recently voiced concerns about the rancorous tone of the Democratic primary, said she was forced to choose between two friends and picked Obama.

"Between Barack and a hard place, I chose Barack," she told reporters in a conference call. "He's able to dissolve the hard cynical edge that has dominated our politics under the Bush administration."

Klobuchar joins Missouri Sen. Claire McCaskill in backing Obama, who hasn't fared as well with white female voters as Clinton has in the primaries. The two presidential candidates each have the backing of 13 senators, who are superdelegates to the convention.]

He may be the underdog in PA, but he also has the momentum.
