The superdelegate from Tampa (who had already given Obama $2,300, but remained officiallly neutral) jumped on the O-train today: "I think it is essential now to unite behind Senator Obama to defeat Senator McCain in the fall. I am ready now to pick up the tools that we have been given by coming together and moving forward to secure Floridafor the Democrats. With Floridaand Michigana part of the equation that there is no doubt in my mind that we can come together and it is my job now to hit the ground running and help deliver Florida. As a single African American mother, I feel personally about securing a better future for my daughter, and I truly believe Senator Obama will bring the kind of change our country needs.”

4. He picked one up here in Michigan today, too

I went to a town hall he hosted and the mayor of one of our local municipalities who is a superdelegate endorsed him today. It's also a half vote from here. The endorser was Brenda Lawrence, mayor of Southfield, MI, who is now running for Oakland County Executive.
