Superdelegates could tip balance Feb 6 - What really counts in winning the presidential nomination is delegates, not votes. Winning states doesn't equate with winning delegates. On Super Tuesday, Barack Obama won more states than HIllary Clinton but got fewer delegates. Tags: Superdelegates Super Tuesday reuters |

Superdelegates 101 In the wake of Super Tuesday, the Clinton/Obama faceoff is more confusing than ever. But an "X" factor could change the shape of the race: So-called "superdelegates," Democratic party insiders who are the free agents of the primary season. Could the delegates throw the convention into disarray? The Nation political correspondent Ari Berman, expanding on his recent piece about the delegate race, breaks down who these "superdelegates" are, and what they mean to the Clinton/Obama race. http://www.thenation.com/doc/20080218/berman Tags: commentary analysis superdelegates obama clinton 2008 Election subversion of justice and democracy |

Barack Obama SuperDelegates tell Hillary Clinton: It's Over! Top Barack Obama super delegates urge Hillary Clinton to drop out of the race. During a conference call, senators John Kerry (Massachusetts), Claire Mccaskill (Missouri), Amy Klobuchar (Minnesota) and governors Duval Patrick (Massachusetts) and Janet Napolitano (Arizona) speak on Obama's behalf and state the case that he is more electable. -------------------------------------------- It will all be over soon enough. Notwithstanding his loss in Kentucky, his big win in Oregon put Obama at 1,957 delegates, according to RealClearPolitics.com. That is only 69 delegates from the magic number of 2,026 set by Democratic Party rules to clinch the nomination. There are only 301 delegates left to allocate, of which 215 are superdelegates. Obama just needs 23% of those remaining delegates. Now that Obama has accumulated an absolute majority of the elected, pledged delegates, the already steady movement of superdelegates to his column will increase. Even if the Rules Committee of the DNC seats all of the delegates from Michigan and Florida, the math doesn't materially change. Let's say the Committee allocated 10% more of the Michigan and Florida delegates to Clinton than Obama. Between them, Michigan and Florida would have had 366 delegates -- so that would only net Clinton 37 delegates. If The long Democratic primary season has engaged millions of new voters...The 80,000 people who attended the Portland rally for Obama would never have gone had there not been a long primary to necessitate it. The act of attending that rally will do more than dozens of commercials will do to guarantee their commitment and their passion for the Democratic candidate this fall. The same is true for the tens of thousands who banged on doors or picked up the phone - or argued with a neighbor about the campaign. But The long primary has forced the Obama campaign to develop organizations in all 50 states. Generally, presidential campaigns develop organizations in a few primary states and then go on to develop organizations in the few "in-play" general election states. By forcing Obama to create organizations in every state, the long primary season has helped enormously to broaden the general election playing field. This year, there will be strong, experienced Obama organizations in every state in America. The battle has hugely increased Democratic registration. In-play states like Nevada that started the year with a majority of Republican registrants, now have a majority of Democrats. The New York Times reports that well over half of new registrants in Oregon were 30 or younger, and that of the 83,000 voters who changed parties this year, a large majority switched to Democratic. The long primary fight has battle-hardened the Obama organization. Most of Obama's top field people have now been through four or five tough primary contests. That experience has taught even the greenest organizer to "think like a political organizer." It has taught thousands of organizers and volunteers the nuances of political organizing that are only learned through practice. Great organizations are more than the sum of their parts...The tough contest has sharpened Obama's already formidable skills and those of his top advisers as well. The most difficult issues have already been vetted. The tough primary forced the Reverend Wright controversy -- and the issue of race in general -- to be fully examined by the media and public. The same goes for other standard Republican attacks. Much better that these issues be raised in March than in October. Much better that the voters see Obama win primaries -- and win the nomination -- after dealing with these issues. And of course, it has given Americans the chance to get used to the idea of an African American president. For many Americans that has happened. While Obama might have less appeal than Clinton among working class white Appalachians, he won 57% of the white vote in mostly-white Oregon -- including 53% of those earning under $50,000 per year. Obama's big trump card in the fall election is his ability to change the electorate - to register and mobilize millions of voters who have not voted before. The long primary season has set the stage for a fall campaign that does just that. It will place dozens of new states into play. It will change the formula for winning traditional swing states like Pennsylvania, Ohio and Michigan. In the end, the long primary season has set the stage for what could be a transformational election that sweeps Obama into the presidency, and substantially bolsters Democratic majorities in the House and Senate. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/robert-creamer/why-the-long-primary-batt_b_102848.html Tags: Barack Obama Hillary Clinton John Mccain Montana South Dakota Iraq war George Bush bill elite bitter Rev wright Edwards |

HILLARY CLINTON on Superdelegates 2/23 Hillary Clinton at the Black State of the Union saying that she has relationships with the superdelegates, and that they know the candidates better than the voters. She also states that she has long deep relationships with these people, she goes on to imply that while it's good and all that the voters get out there the superdelegates know better. She is attempting to sway the superdelegate vote her way and against that of the will of the voters. From her own site at hillaryclinton dot com ... "As more voters make their choice for the Democratic nomination, there is growing interest in the facts and myths about the race to reach 2208 delegate votes - the number required for a candidate to secure the nomination with Florida and Michigan included. The Obama campaign is claiming, without precedent or justification, that automatic delegates (commonly referred to as "super delegates") should switch to Sen. Obama en masse based on arbitrary metrics, with the aim of tilting the delegate balance in his favor. The fact is: no automatic delegate is required to cast a vote on the basis of anything other than his or her best judgment about who is the most qualified to be president." She is still counting Florida and Michigan when she herself signed a pledge agreeing they would not be seated. When according to the Associated Press 2/17/08... Clinton Top Delegate Adviser Harold Ickes Voted For Democratic Party Rules That Stripped Michigan And Florida Of Their Delegates. "Harold Ickes, a top adviser to Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's campaign who voted for Democratic Party rules that stripped Michigan and Florida of their delegates, now is arguing against the very penalty he helped pass. In a conference call Saturday, the longtime Democratic Party member contended the DNC should reconsider its tough sanctions on the two states, which held early contests in violation of party rules. He said millions of voters in Michigan and Florida would be otherwise disenfranchised - before acknowledging moments later that he had favored the sanctions." Barack Obama has stated that it would be an injustice for the superdelegates to overturn the will of the voters. Do NOT let Hillary Clinton get away with this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Poitical favors and superdelegates-2/2 In Tight Democratic Race, Could Campaign Donations and Personal Views Influence Potentially Decisive Superdelegate Vote? With neither Democratic presidential candidate expected to win the 2,025 delegates needed to clinch the nomination, it's all coming down to superdelegates, the nearly 800 former elected officeholders and party officials who are technically free to choose who they like. While Obama leads in the overall delegate count and among pledged delegates, Clinton has more superdelegate support. About 300 of the 795 superdelegates have yet to take sides. And both campaigns are in a heated battle to win their support. In fact, many of the superdelegates have already been plied with campaign contributions by Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, according to a new study by the Center for Responsive Politics.
