[BenDavid]

Hillary Clinton:pledged 840
superdelegates..........193
total.................1,033

obama..........:pledged 831
superdelegates..........106
total...................937

Damn! all hrc needed were 5 more delegates or superdelegates... According to obama's campaign if it were less than a hundred they might have a shot at getting the nomination....DAMN 5 more and obama would be H I S T O R Y.....

1. Funny, my sources show much different information about the pledged delegates.

2. You've got the Obama "vague" thing down perfectly.

Good going.

7. Awww - you're just 'hoping' them different - I heard these #'s

and several other versions on NPR yesterday. These figs come from AP, which NPR said had the most credibility, because they actually got down and dirty and 'investigated' the true numbers. They quoted several other sources with different numbers/spreads - but all had Hillary in the lead - except the ones from the Obama campaign (hmmm?)

3. what? no race baiting from you in this post?

that's a surprise. And listen, cupcake, you're gonna get to eat it after next Tuesday when Obama will be ahead in pledged delegates. You are one of the people here who deserves to have their face rubbed in it. I'll be sure to taunt you.

4. Super Delegates will decide the nominee - The Math

I just did the math

H has 832 delegates
O has 821 delegates

H has 50.05% of votes cast so far

There are a total (w/o MI & FL) of 3427 delegates
1663 have been voted (see above)

1764 are left

keeping the same percentage, since this race is so close, almost 50/50 (tho H will be stronger in some areas and O in others)

There is NO WAY either candidate will get the 2025 needed

So far there are 213 super delegates pledged to H and 119 to O Keep in mind these are SOFT pledges and can change sides anytime up to the convention vote
There are 493 super delegates that have not pledged either way

These numbers were taken from the 2008 Dem Convention Watch

They are not obligated to vote as their precinct or state voted, they can make their decision based on anything they decide upon, collectively or individually.

6. You got that from CNN

They repeat Michigan delegates twice.

Based on their reported delegates it should be 838-193-1031 --- 830-106-936
