4. Super Delegate Switches
Are extremely unlikely from either camps. I think I've read of 4-5 since the start of the campaign and those were generally in situations where a SD's electorate overwhelmingly supported the other person (+70%) and the SD was fearful of their political future. Once you declare with someone you pretty much stay with that person but I guess anything is possible.

Pledge delegate switches are even more unlikley since they are generally people selected who actively worked to get you elected.

8. There are already a number of Clinton SDs that have announced that they will
vote for the nominee with the most pledged delegates. Sen Murray and Cantwell of Washington State for example.


There are other signs including some Clinton SDs in NY.

7. This post, which has been stated a thousand times, is necessary why?
I support Obama, but I think I can wait until the game is over to strut. Enough already.

10. Well, she can "make up" stories about her adventures as first lady
so who knows, maybe she can "make up" delegates too. :eyes:
