Edwards Endorses Obama, Calls for 'Bold Leadership'

It's a reminder that Obama has taken, not one, but two surprise endorsements. Not only is Edwards staging an endorsement just in time for the evening news, but the pro-abortion rights group, NARAL, endorsed Obama earlier Wednesday.

Clinton supporter Ellen Malcolm of EMILY'S LIST called that NARAL endorsement "tremendously disrespectful" of Clinton.
