For First Time, More Superdelegates Favor Obama
By JOHN M. BRODER
Published: May 10, 2008

The trump card Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton held in her faltering bid for president — her support among the superdelegates who can control the fate of the Democratic nomination — began slipping from her grasp on Friday as Senator Barack Obama moved into the lead on this front, with uncommitted delegates declaring their allegiance to him as others deserted her.

2. Clinton: "“We need to elect someone who understands how Washington works..."

Interesting comment from the same article. All respect to Senator Clinton but I am not sure this is a winning message for the 2008 GE. Hasn't it been a central focus of the Obama campaign that we need to CHANGE how Washington works. To me that would have more resonance with the vast majority of voters who are not at all happy or satisfied about how Washington works.

“There is no margin for error,” she said on Thursday night at a fairground in Central Point, Ore. “We need to elect someone who understands how Washington works and is ready from Day 1.”
