Superdelegates Starting to Break
You may have noticed the Superdelegate widget on the left hand side of the site in the past few weeks. Big thanks to Steve Newton for pointing it out to me.
Well in the last two days I have started to notice the numbers changing slightly. Yesterday an Illinois SD committed to Obama. Today, CT named Obama’s state co-chair as a superdelegate. Perhaps we have nothing to fear from the super delegates. Obama is closing the gap. As they say, watch this space.

And a big, big one has just broken. According to the Philly Inquirer, Sen. Bob Casey, a patron saint to ‘Reagan Democrats’, is endorsing Obama today and going on a bus tour with him. This is gonna cut into Hillary’s Pa. lead. Great way to start my morning!

I just wrote a juicy blog entry on that Steve!
BTW, Dan Pfeiffer, Obama’s Deputy Communications Director quoted in the story, is from Delaware and his parents still live here. I know this b/c his mom was one of my kids’ teachers, and a very good one at that.
