ABC News: Obama Now Leads in Superdelegates

With an additional switch this morning (Rep. Donald Payne, NJ) and a new endorsement (Rep. Peter DeFazio, OR), Obama now leads Clinton 267-266 among the superdelegates.


(via Daily Kos)

Paul has mentioned this several times in our discussion group meetings, but I'll reiterate the point here. It has seemed like only a matter of time before this happened. A new leader in the count has emerged and Clinton has one less thing to lean on in making an argument to the other uncommitted superdelegates.

Maybe Paul needs to send her an email letting her know that it is all over. Did you see that Bill verbally abused a questioner in WV this morning?

Maybe he needs some anger management lessons from John McCain.

I read about the incident, but have yet to see the video.

Maybe he should contact McCain. And here I thought a Hillary/McCain match up was billed as a civil affair. Perhaps not if Bill is on the trail.

Here's the link to that video.
