Rep. G.K. Butterfield tells local paper Obama has been in discussions with state's six other Democrats, saying "more than one is seriously considering making a public release this week in support of Senator Obama."

Later clarifies in statement: "...nothing is scheduled at this time, and it is up to each of them to decide when – or if – that will happen."

Comments come after Wall Street Journal reports all seven of the state's Democratic House members plan to back the Land of Lincolner as a group.
