Supporters of John Edwards have begun shifting their support towards Barack Obama. Edwards, the former Democratic presidential candidate, endorsed Barack Obama for President on Wednesday at a rally in Michigan. CNN is saying that at least eight delegates who have pledged their votes to Edwards will be switching to Obama, and more are expected to follow.

Nine house members who previously supported Edwards have also announced their support for Obama, and seven superdelegates have switched their pledge to Obama.
