Brent Budowsky, a blogger with The Hill, just told Clout host Richard Greene that “at least 20 superdelegates” are privately committed to Obama, and will slowly pledge their support for him over the coming weeks, mainly before the NC primary.
Budowsky stated that his sources were rock solid, and that Oklahoma Governor Brad Henry was the first of these supers to go public. Greene commented that this is a brilliant political strategy by Obama, and I must say I agree with him. Imagine, one or two supers a day coming out for Obama, stretched out over the next 10 to 15 days. (Emphasis added)
Think Obama knows what he’s doing? This will effectively reverse whatever momentum Clinton got from her PA win. And rather than release the good news all at once, he’s going to let it come out just a bit at a time, so it can dominate multiple news cycles.
An argument can be made that 20 supers in one shot would be morenewsworthy, but the Obama camp has proven that they know what they are doing so, I’m down with this.
