Big Sanders win in Maine does not flip state’s Clinton superdelegates

7. Actually, it's a commitment to switch if Bernie wins more nationally...

"All three Clinton supporters said Monday that they will wait until the convention and support whoever has the majority of delegates going into the national convention."

They are committing to do what I imagine most of the supposed "Clinton" unpledged will do -- i.e., switch to Bernie if he ultimately gets more pledged delegates than Clinton.

This demonstrates that any unpledged endorsements of Clinton are fairly meaningless. All the more reason endorsements should absolute NOT be included in delegate counts.

Perhaps we need to start pointing this out to news outlets who are combining pledged and unpledged "endorsements? Clearly, Clinton endorsements are NOT a "pledge" to vote for Clinton.
