Obama picks up four more superdelegates
(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.
What more is there to say. I hope this is over by months end.
With all the delegates and endorsements headed in Obama's direction, has anyone else noticed that Terry McAulliffe (Clinton campaign manager) sounds increasingly like Muhammed Saeed al-Sahaf (former Iraqi Information Minister).
CNN can you see that this thing is winding down. It is time now to explore what options the GOP and McBush have to offer.
Drip, drip, flood! The superdelegates are making their minds up, alright. And Obama is their person!
America will unite in November.
Full Speeed to November
Are the republicans trembling for the coming tsunami ?
Obama our president ( Us Canadians too )
The rich men are busy at work. Half of them supporting Obama so that a woman doesn't get into the Oval office and half of them because they know Obama will be the weaker candidate against McCain. The backroom deals are a flying! God our government is disgusting.
To all you HRC supporters.....
I think this is what you refer to as "closing the deal".
Hillary has the popular vote.
NOW WHAT HAPPEN TO THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE.
HILLARY CLINTON AS A INDEPENDENT THIS FALL.
Life long DEMOCRAT the would vote INDEPENDENT.

It will be an honor to meet you Mr. President Barack OBAMA!
Time for Hillary to go ahead and bow out gracefully and re-unite the party
Stand Strong
For Change
OR
Fall Hard
For The Same!!
This is great. I'm fro California and I found it interesting how Clinton won the primary here yet none of the SDs from our state had yet to come out and endorse her which is of a significant number. Just ready to finaly get this party united and put the buffoon out of the oval office ASAP!

We are almost there.By next week we should be leadind with about 50 superdelegates.
O when the Saint, go marching in, O when the Saint, go marching in, O'Lord I want to be in that number...O when the Saint go marching in.....On Jan 20, 2009, when Obama becomes President Obama, O Lord I will be in that number...
OBAMA08!!!
Of course he did!
It's over – but the denial remains.
This has been in the works by Howard Dean for some time now who wants to usurp the American voters and put an end to this race so they can annoint the King, Obama. Too bad for them because Americans are not going to vote for Obama, not because he is black, but because of the baggage, his arrogance, his inexperience and because he is dangerous for this country.
Welcome aboard:)
NEWSFLASH – Obama lost 400,000 votes tody also.
You are all welcome to the winning team. Hillary only thinks she is still in the race; the race has been over for some time. But please don’t let her know… it’s a secret we are keeping from her. She is basically running against herself, like a hamster running on a wheel getting nowhere. Obama will resume to work at ova office in January. Hillary will still be running.
Roll on to the White House.
Ok, Dean now that you have fubared the Democratic party, could we just go with the popular vote next time – you know how we do our state and local runoffs.
