(CNN) – Barack Obama picked up four more superdelegates Thursday, his campaign announced.

Washington Rep. Jim McDermott, California Rep. Henry Waxman, California Rep. Henry Berman and Communications Workers of America President Larry Cohen will all cast their superdelegate votes for the Illinois senator.

Waxman and Berman both have ties to the Clintons, and many of their prominent supporters in California are supporters of Hillary Clinton.

The CWA said Thursday that Cohen's endorsement is a personal one and does not signal an endorsement by the union, which decided last year that it would not back a candidate. In a Thursday release, the union said that decision would be re-visited at its June convention.

According to CNN's estimate, Obama now has 291 superdelegates to Clinton's 274.

More rats jumping ship. I hope the Clintons dont ever forget these hate filled actions by people that they helped. The Clintons were there when these people needed them, now these people are taking great pleasure in burning the Clintons. These people are disgusting human beings who wouldnt know how to be loyal. I cant wait to see their boy get ripped to shreds by the republicans. I am a democrat who has not voted for a republican for any office for 30 years. This time I will be voting straight ticket Republican. The Demcratic leadership turns my stomach.

Obama Helped Supporters Get Millions in Illinois State Business

John Rogers, Whose Business Obama Helped as a State Senator, Is Now One of Obama's Chief Fundraisers

By AVNI PATEL, JUSTIN ROOD
and BRIAN ROSS

May 15, 2008

In a speech to the Urban League last July, Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., boasted of his efforts in 2001 to help a handful of African American-owned investment firms in Chicago get a larger share of business with Illinois state pension funds.

"And in six months, they got about a half-billion dollars' worth of business simply on their excellence," Obama said.

What he did not say in his speech was that the owner of one of the investment firms, John Rogers of Ariel Capital, is a principal campaign fundraiser.

Nor did he reveal that employees of the firms he helped have since contributed to or helped to raise more than $765,000 for his campaigns, according to campaign documents.

Nor did he mention that two of the firms have allowed him to use their private jets. Nor did he mention that two of the firms have since been dismissed by the state pension fund for "underperformance."

Cammi317   May 15th, 2008 1:34 pm ET

It's time for all Democrats to set-aside their petty differences and unite. Whether you like it or not, our current system is mandated by the numbers and the numbers are clear. We have to beat the Republican machine this fall, PERIOD!

FLORIDA Voter for Barack Obama   May 15th, 2008 1:34 pm ET

Yup, it's a wrap.

Roger B from Portland, OR   May 15th, 2008 1:34 pm ET

So how much longer is Clinton going to live in Bizzaro world?

MillionMan, Washington, DC   May 15th, 2008 1:35 pm ET

It is time for the Dems to unite and get on with defeating McBush.

I am confused by Hillary supporters who indicate they will vote for McCain if Obama gets the Dem. nomination! Are you folks not Democrats!!?? Would you really prefer to cut off your nose just to spite your face?

McCain is not an independent! He is a Bush Republican! He has sold out any "maverick inclinations" in him to pander to the right-wing conservative base of the Republicans. His reversal on the tax cuts, his speech on appointing conservative judges, his denial of not having voted for Bush, etc. all speak to this pandering.

Obama is a black man running for president. He has received Secret Service protection earlier than any other candidate in history. His life, his wife's life and the lives of their two daughters are being threatened every day. Would not only a patriot go through this!?

Don’t Obama and Hillary agree on most major issues!?

Thus, the questions become: Are you more racist than Democrat!?
Are you more racist than pro choice!? Are you more racist than anti-tax cuts for the rich!? Even Hillary would answer "no" to all these questions.

Sharon Kitchen   May 15th, 2008 1:35 pm ET

Say goodbye, Hillary. OBAMA 08′

Eric   May 15th, 2008 1:36 pm ET

She could have ended her campaign gracefully after Indiana and NC. She decided to go on, made an outrageous race argument, got everyone angry and now she's getting kicked out without any pity. Untill the end, she will show the exact same lack of judgement that would have been one scary thing, if she had been elected president.

Truth Hurts   May 15th, 2008 1:37 pm ET

Clinton should run as an Independent because Obama wil lose the GE. I know there's HOPE for Obama to connect with those blue collar workers but truth is many Americans are stil racist. All we're going to talk about for the next 4yrs is how racism was the reason the Democrats lost the GE(genaral election)… Edwards cant do MUCH to help. Edwards is not running for pres, Obama is.

faye, NV   May 15th, 2008 1:37 pm ET

Thank God we are finally coming together to unite as one party. Thanks to all those who will come with us.

Truly there is a need to become one BIG PARTY and no more Bush/Mccain. Enough is enough.

Texas Vet   May 15th, 2008 1:38 pm ET

I am sure Hillary knows she will not win the nomination. Unfortunately her supporters just can’t handle that reality. All I can say to them is:

When you can’t discuss issues, when you can’t justify the actions of your candidate, when your last gasp is the popular vote instead of delegate count; why take out your frustration and inadequacies by demeaning and insulting anyone that doesn’t adore your candidate.

Instead of telling us how you will vote for McCain, spend your time praying to the Patron Saint of Lost Causes.

We many, we happy many, we band of brothers and sisters. For those that vote with me in November for Obama shall ever be my Family. That vote shall change our condition. Voters that stayed away or voted otherwise shall think themselves accursed. And they shall stay silent while any speak that voted with us on that blessed day.

Stolen from Will….mangled by me

Marilyn, Kansas   May 15th, 2008 1:38 pm ET

Excellent. I wonder what twist Hilary Clinton will put on this now. She has fought a dirty, smearing, and pandering campaign, and is stil down by all measurements. And yet she keeps taking people's money and acting like she has a way to win. Well if people are stupid enough to send her money, they deserve to lose it.

Vicki   May 15th, 2008 1:38 pm ET

DOESN'T MATTER HOW MANY DELEGATES HE GETS FROM NOW UNTIL JUNE 3. I WANT VOTE FOR OBAMA IN THE GENERAL ELECTION.

Don't let yourselves be played by the republicans. All of this "divisiveness" within the democratic party has been fueled by republicans posing as democrats.

Operation Chaos is still going full steam. Their goal is to divide our party because they know that is their only chance for November.

We must unite behind our nominee - whoever it is - and make sure a democrat ends up in the whitehouse.

The republicans are making fools of us and laughing behind our backs. Don't be played for a fool - Vote Democrat '08 - either way.

It's really funny.
Dems (liberal dems) are really, really…..really…what is the word? Stupid? Nonsensical? Idiotic? Self-Destructive?
If these people, inluding Edwards, truly thought that Obama was the best nominee, WHY did they wait until he kept losing state after state? If they truly think he is best TODAY and YESTERDAY…..why not come out LAST MONTH? TWO MONTHS AGO? THREE MONTHS AGO?????????
Can someone explain?
BTW, all the BO supporters that are now trying to kiss and make up, too late. You've clearly shown your arrogance and hatred towards Hillary. If you back-track now, you are just pandering. Just don't bother. Go celebrate. Good luck in the fall :)

We are on our way to winning the whitehouse back, thank god. Bush is just out making more trouble, someone needs to stop this man, but why bother, he has no credibility, and will go down in history as the worst leader we have had in our nation. Its just too bad he has done so much damage. I will be celebrating the day he leaves office and hopefully he will not go unpunished for his war crimes.

REAL American for Obama   May 15th, 2008 1:46 pm ET

Enough endorsements already. Let the rest of the people vote, then all of you can come out the next day and endorse Obama. We all know he is going to be the nominee, but let the people's voices be heard first. Only a few more weeks to go. This daily roll-out of superdelegate endorsements is starting to get annoying.

Anyone with a brain and who is not mentally disturbed will get behind the Democratic nominee. The Democrats are making a mockery of our election system.

VOTE DEMOCRAT 08!   May 15th, 2008 1:48 pm ET

Now, as he gets closer everyday, can we please just say that he's going to win and call it a day? I am not saying Clinton should drop out, that's her decision, but what I am saying is that what people need to do (well Clinton said it yesterday, and I usually never agree with her) is take a deep breath and relax. This isn't a Black vs. White, Men vs. Women issue… its about the candidate. Obama is not stealing this race, because she didn't win it. He won fair and square. I mean no one should pay attention to the MSM, go and read about the candidates on your own. They each have websites for and against them and that's how I made my decision. I went to their campaign websites and read their plans. So, no it wasn't about a bunch of fancy speeches and no he didn't steal her plans. It was about seeing someone who saw this country in a different way, someone who agrees with how I feel things in Washington DC will get better. Not that I don't admire a fighter, but I know that "Blessed are the Peacemakers".

Super Delegates must want to lose in Novemeber is all that I have to say to them.

I will never vote for Obama!!!!

Joey   May 15th, 2008 1:48 pm ET

Isn't it funny…

When the talk first began about superdelegates deciding the election there was an uproar that "men" (as in not women) in smoke filled rooms would be deciding the election… At that time the thought was that Hillary would win most those superdelegates and I remember watching the reason why I can't watch CNN anymore… Wolf Blitzer almost attacking a senator for potentially voting for a the candidate that didn't win his state. Example senator voting for HIllary even though the state voted for Obama would be vetoing the will of the people and Wolf thought that was a huge injustice…

1st - Why not go after Dean or the Dem party in general if you don't like the fact that the SD's have free will to vote how they want

2nd - Where did that uproar go now that SD's who's constituants voted for Hillary are supporting Obama… It's suddenly okay now because it's not for Hillary like you thought?

Can anyone explaine?

OK. Let's get this over with so we can beat the crap out of Bush and those wimpy Repigs!

Mr. Waxman and Mr. Berman both have ties with the Clintons…

Once again… must be some thing going on with the with Clintons if their ties are leaving!

Go Obama!

stop the madness   May 15th, 2008 1:49 pm ET

This is great. but just what is the real total for today? I think it is more like 10 at this point, remember 6 came along with Edwards from NC. 4+6=10 with more of them expected to come!!

Keep up Cnn we will need you to help us keep count cause they are flooding in. Thanks!

Rich   May 15th, 2008 1:50 pm ET

Wow, wasn't he still behind Clinton in superdelegates until this week?

It's impressive that Clinton had such a large win in West Virginia the other night, but let's not forget that Obama has achieved 67% or more of the vote 9 times whereas this is only number 2 for Hillary (Obama - Georgia, Hawaii, Washington, Nebraska, Idaho, Kansas, Colorado, District of Columbia; Clinton - Arkansas, West Virginia). In fact, this is only the 2nd time she's gotten over 60% of the vote compared to 15 for Obama. So lets all keep this in perspective.

And what the heck was up with Edwards getting 7% of the vote!?

Randy   May 15th, 2008 1:50 pm ET

Even with the Edwards endorsement of Barak Hussien Obama cannot win the WHITE House. This is one Democrat that will cross over and vote Mccain. We cannot allow this inexperienced, very liberal left wing of the Democratic running the country. Edwards sure looked like he was hinting around to another run at a losing ticket.

Derek from NC   May 15th, 2008 1:51 pm ET

WOW! Obama is really picking up steam!

RNY   May 15th, 2008 1:51 pm ET

What is this? An attempt to discourage Clinton supporters to go to the polls and vote for her?

M Philllips   May 15th, 2008 1:51 pm ET

What is behind the CNN policy of not adding delegates( you admit in your own news stories) have joined the Obama campaign? What is the motive? I just read elsewhere in the election portion of your website that Obama has 191 super delegates yet here– in this part of CNN.politics.com– you list him with 188? I do not notice similar " fudging" with Clinton numbers. Please treat both candidates the same way , whatever your policy.

Steve TX 34   May 15th, 2008 1:51 pm ET

Why do Dems say Al Gore deserved to be President because of the popular vote, despite the electoral system being the rule of the land…but when Hilary is winning the popular vote, they advocate adherence to DNC rules…As usual DEMs typically equate Hipocracy or make arguments to serve their needs AT THAT GIVEN MOMENT without real analytical thinking!!!

Cécile, Montreal   May 15th, 2008 1:53 pm ET

Great news…

Democrats… have you notice that some of Clinton's supporters are as nasty as she is? And who says opposite attrack? I cannot believe that someone will vote for grandpa McBush just to make sure Obama does not win in the general election. That particular way of thinking just remind me so mush of Billary tactics. So glad it is just a minority… that is why their candidate will not win the nomination. A lot of us have integrity just as the best candiate out there.. Go OBAMA GO 08 /12

All of these big wheel politicians and Obama still cannot put away the "pantsuit lady"? What will the DNC do next to try and sabotage the vote? Millions of people disenfranchised and the DNC thinks we will vote "democratic" in the fall? Drink some more of that kool-aid, Dean, Kennedy, Kerry, Pelosi. We will be voting for the best candidate and it isn't Obama.

Scott Hughes ATL   May 15th, 2008 1:54 pm ET

You know,

It's getting pretty difficult for Clinton supporters to keep bashing all the endorsements that Obama is getting. It seems to me that some of these endorsements gave Clinton every opportunity (including some opportunties that sane people thought were pretty rediculous) before they endorsed Obama.

You can't really argue with the judgement of any one of these 4 mentioned.

After a while, people that argue for Clinton, saying that she's the best candidate just begin to look and sound foolish…

I suppose I'd be pretty upset if my candidate was losing too, but make no mistake, she IS losing and losing badly. Most would say she's lost already.

Then you say you'lll burn the house down (vote for Mccain) rather than let someone else have it???

Most of you are parents right? Well you'd be burning the house down with your children inside. All because you refuse to face reality. This makes me wonder about Clinton herself, if these are the types of supporters she attracts…

beans, belize C.A   May 15th, 2008 1:54 pm ET

I sincerely hope that HRC & Co. can see this very vivid writing on the wall! Time to throw in the towel !! The fat lady has already finished singing!

Richard (from Puerto Rico)   May 15th, 2008 1:55 pm ET

Music to my ears, I am living history evolving and taking its place for centurys' and milleniums to come. Its, past time that the American people come together as one, the USA, is the sum, the sum of its people united as one. This will, make us stronger, united we win, diveded we all loose. Just think about it, (like Congressman Luis Gutierres would say) That is a fact, no myth.

Dia Akin   May 15th, 2008 1:55 pm ET

Its a wrap for Clinton. How much more evidence does she need?

Sadly for her and her supporters, they CONTINUE to cling to this notion that they're ahead in the popular vote, which they are not. They STILL feel like tthere's SOME loophole that will grant Clinton the nomination, which there is not. She's STILL blasting Obama about certain things and has the AUDACITY to think that she deserves to be on his team after all of that? I can't see it.

If he accepts her, he'll definitely lose my support. You can't tear someone to shreds and attempt to ruin their credibility and then extend a hand of friendship after you've realized you can't have what they earned, so now you want to play on their team.

Michael, an indepedent   May 15th, 2008 1:56 pm ET

Yes , it is important for Obama to get more superdelegates, but what is most important for the Democrats is to heal the deep rift that currently exists between Clinton and Obama supporters.

Democrats: Do not underestimate the deep divide that exists between the Clintoncrats and the Obamacrats.

If the CNN blogs (and other blogs) truly reflect the hostility within the Democrat party, I'm afraid the Republicans may get back into the White House.

Mike   May 15th, 2008 1:56 pm ET

Numbers don't scare Hillary. Her ego can't be measured in such mundane numbers.

So who cares?? it doesn't matter Hillary WILL win because if you bend the rules JUST right she is AHEAD!! She WILL be the Nominee and if not I will hold my breath and turn blue and vote for McCain!!

How did I do??

Carli   May 15th, 2008 2:00 pm ET

I guess Edwards wanted "Change" Yeah!!! Extra "Change" to pay off his Campaign DEBT. what a joke, this is not a real endorsement its a set up,"politics as ussual". I notice Mrs. Edwards did'nt even bother to show. What a joke! who are they trying to kid!

NO matter what Hillary we are still behind you 100%

It looks like it won't be long before Obama reaches 2026.

I am glad that all of us Oregonians will push him over (or close to) the goal line. I am looking forward to his speech in Oregon on Tuesday!

Sharon Minnesota   May 15th, 2008 2:04 pm ET

Hillary, you need to join me and a whole lot of your other supporters and change party's. The democrats have gone into a liberal cult frenzy. You don't really belong with them any more.

Valerie - St. Louis, MO   May 15th, 2008 2:04 pm ET

Jesus Francisco Cardenas   May 15th, 2008 2:05 pm ET

these super-delegates still don't get it … voters don't want "Kerry-2008″ … anymore than they wanted Kerry-2004! … and Obama is no different than Kerry … only black!

Liroudiane   May 15th, 2008 2:05 pm ET

At this rate of 4 supers per day, it will be over by next week! Kudos to Obama presumptive nomminee!

White Male -CA   May 15th, 2008 2:05 pm ET

Thank you John Edwards! Thank you Super D's for listening to the people.

I love all these Right Wing WACKOS who come in here pretending to be Hillary supporters and stirring up the pot.

Get off the Double Talk Express and let McCain alone go full steam ahead into a wall of empty gun shells after a 100year war.

VW   May 15th, 2008 2:06 pm ET

Those endorsements convey only one thing, they prefer a weak candidate for democratic party in their own interests but not for our USA and it is DEFINITELY doomed to lose in Nov.

Lisa   May 15th, 2008 2:06 pm ET

Why can't Obama close the deal?

curtis   May 15th, 2008 2:06 pm ET

Thats good news.The path to the nomination is becoming much clearer. Americans will unite under obama because he can be no worse than some of the others who have been elected to the White House. Men who cheat on their spouses while at the white house, those who lie to start a war. Those who lie about watergate, and the Contra affair are just a few examples. YES WE CAN.

Phil in KC   May 15th, 2008 2:06 pm ET

Waxman and McDermott both wield some influence, so this is big. Not as big as Edwards, but big. It could signal a continuing flood of delegates for Obama.

Michael in Lorton, Virginia   May 15th, 2008 2:06 pm ET

Corrected.

Has Hillary started to see the "writing on the wall yet." All the big blue states that she carried will now support Obama……the fat lady is loosing her singing voice………withdraw with some dignity…….because what you have left, you are loosing.

It's very clear among my friends that if Obama is the Party Nominee , my friends and I will vote for John McCain. Period. Obama will ruin this country, more than Bush already did.

Brnman   May 15th, 2008 2:06 pm ET

More good news for Sen Obama.

Superdelegates need to end this primary race now. The longer it continues, Sen Clinton or one of her supporters may says something else that will cause more divisions in the Democratic Party.

Leericists   May 15th, 2008 2:06 pm ET

WOW !!! This rookie is running an impressive campaign and i even think he is getting better and better everydays ! Go Barack !

I am so glad that the superdelegates are starting to endorse one of the candidates. More importantly, I am excited that they are supporting Obama. I believe that America wants change and Barack Obama definitely is CHANGE.

rehoboth ng   May 15th, 2008 2:08 pm ET

I can see clearly now that the terminus is nearer than I had earlier thought. So much touting and emphasis on blue collar and white collar workers. Are they not willing to be free from their delusion that Hillary will win? There is still space for everyone in Obama bus. They are welcome on board.

disenfranchised   May 15th, 2008 2:08 pm ET

I feel bad for all these super delegates who are going to have buyers remorse, I dont care who endorces him, he isnt going to win the general. Hes made too many enemys and has too much baggage. Sounds to me like Obama owes alot of favors out there! sounds like old politics to me. I am voting for Clinton anyway. I will write her in.

christine   May 15th, 2008 2:08 pm ET

that shows you that bush has got no respect what ever for the men and women in iraq no respect for his own country, the world is watching and loughing at us saying these people can scold each other like that in front of foreign countries this is the republican politics we are tired scold the demo party but do nothing for the american people, we really need to think about were we are in the world bush should have not said such a thing

mommagirl   May 15th, 2008 2:09 pm ET

It seems like everyone is a little nervous about Hillary's pull with the average Joe demographic. Edwards endorsement and his ship dumping delegates have a made a clear statement. "We can't let Hillary win anything else because it HIGHLIGHTS Obama's weaknesses"
"God forbid everybody knows how weak he is in some key demographics. Lets rally around him and protect him from the world according to Hillary and all her supporters before the cat's out of the bag."
John Edwards, you are a coward and a sucker. If your vying for an important position under Obama, you just paid with your soul to get it.

OBAMA GIRL   May 15th, 2008 2:09 pm ET

Awwww Yeah!!! We're on a roll….how many have HRC picked up since her HUGE win in WV? Guess the rest of America knows the real deal.

I actually think Hillary should stay in the race. Let the people speak in the remaining primaries and then maybe she's look at the numbers and realize that the American people want Obama. The numbers don't lie.

Even if they gave her the delegates and votes from MI & FL she still would be behind.

But then again she'll think of something else.

John   May 15th, 2008 2:09 pm ET

We need the congress to impeach Bush and Cheney right now we can't wait until January by then Bush will attack Iran and Impose martial law to stay in power. Congress act now to save our country.

"Honky white guy from chicago"   May 15th, 2008 2:09 pm ET

when you are able to pay superdelegates more money than your opponent, then you start swinging more votes your way…

do act like a bunch of democrats don't realize this…. the superdelegate is as undemocratic as you can get…

True American   May 15th, 2008 2:12 pm ET

Greg C., CA   May 15th, 2008 2:12 pm ET

Tired of all the Flap   May 15th, 2008 2:15 pm ET

Let's remember, George W. Bush is an ididt and by the White House saying that he was not talking to anyone in particular shows that he was also calling the American People that has the same ideas "foolish delusions." I guess people will think now that Obama has to denounce that nonsense. I call for the impreachment of GEORGE W. BUSH's foolishness that comes out of his inarticulate mouth.

Dolores   May 15th, 2008 2:16 pm ET

Thank you superdelegates. Hopefully voters will see the light as these former Clinton supporters cast their votes for Senator Obama. Being tied to the Clinton machine in the past, they are aware of something that is not really known by most of us, lurking in the background of this long drawn out campaign. The Clintons must not go back into the White House. As a senior citizen, I applaud their decision. We do need and desire real change and that translates to Senator Barack Obama as the next President of our country.

Marilyn   May 15th, 2008 2:17 pm ET

When watching the campaign of Barack Obama, from the very beginning, with everything concerned, through out, I have known he is the one to lead our country. I tune in to CNN the minute I am home from work, but I also am online at break and lunch to be current on updates with he and Hillary Clinton. This has been very exciting for me this year. I am a backer of Barack Obama and count minute by minute his successes as one who really shows us he has the "how to" to run our country. I cannot wait to cast my ballot in November, especially if Barack Obama's name is there.

Fabulous news!

Is there any way CNN can update the delegate count under the ELECTIONS section quicker so we know how close he is to getting the "magic number" that cinches the nomination?

For example, above is the story about the new superdelegates casting their votes for Obama. However if you click on CNN's ELECTIONS section, it doesn't look like its been updated for a while.

Or another way to say it is this way:
Is it possible when the story like the one above is released, the Superdelegate count can be updated at the same time in the ELECTIONS section?

Many thanks!

Felly   May 15th, 2008 2:23 pm ET

Obama is the real deal. Yes, we can!
