I suppose there are two or three separate scenarios I'm imagining:

-Obama endorses Hillary this week, before the Iowa caucus (say, this Thursday)
-Obama endorses Hillary before the NH primary, after she's won by a fair amount in Iowa
-Obama endorses Hillary shortly after a Sanders victory in the NH primary

What would happen? How much would Obama's endorsement help Hillary, and to what extent would it hurt Sanders? Would it lead to Sanders making more pronounced and direct criticisms of Obama administration policies? Would O'Malley just instantly drop out as a result? Would it lead to a bevy of copy-cat endorsements? (From whom?)
