would somebody tell me why all the glee for obama lining up superdelegates,

[niyad]

when there is such screaming going on about clinton lining them up?

[soleft]

1. something about superdelegates going with the will of the voters

[tabatha]

3. which they are

[niyad]

5. so the fact that there are only about 90 delegates difference between the two of them

means hers don't count?

[anigbrowl]

12. It's called a trend

Clinton started the race with a lead o around 150 superdelegates. But nowadays, more and more superdelegates are lining up behind Obama. Every one that does brings him a little bit closer to the nomination. There is nothing wrong with Clinton's superdelegates but she is picking up far fewer of them than her rival.

2. It still might not be enough. Go for both!

4. probably depends on whom you support

I bet people who support Obama like it when Obama lines up superdelegates, but don't like it when Clinton does it.

6. Clinton has alway had lead in the superdelegates, Obama has always had a lead

in the pledged delegates. Some people feel that the superdelegates should only thwart the will of the people in dire circumstances.

If Obama was doing the Huckabee (continuing on despite the math) I wouldn't be hooting and hollering for the superdelegates to thwart the will of the people and give the election to him.

[TAWS]

7. I'm all for an even break of the superdelegates, which is what Obama is trying to do n/t

[ORDagnabbit]

8. mabye because were seeing difference between clinton and obama?

Like I've said I'm a kucinich guy and considered both clinton and obama corporate tools.

over the last couple of weeks Clinton has outshone herself as a corporate tool who will stop at nothing (attack ads, lies and nefarious means) to take down her opponent and her own party.

I am tired of her type of politics and I'm tired of her.

[Cha]

13. Hey, that's my theory ORDagnabbit!

Maybe the SD don't want their party torn to shreds anymore by lying mccain enabler.

[HooptieWagon]

9. What SDs are Clinton lining up?

She's losing them...

[tridim]

10. Because it's a legal counter to Hillary's anti-Democratic "automatic delegate" website

http://www.delegatehub.com

Can anyone tell me why that POS site is still up and being paid for by the Clinton campaign?

[Captain Hilts]

11. We should not let the House of Lords decide the winner, no matter who they support. This hypocrisy-

is amazing.

[KittyWampus]

19. It's Hillary Supporters who've pretended she's tied by padding her #'s with Super Delegates & claim

she's got a shot of winning at the Convention by persuading them to go with her.

They are abandoning her and those who've been uncommitted are breaking to Obama.

[cali]

14. ooh, a falsehood to debunk: No one screamed about Clinton lining up

SDs. People screamed about her trying to win with SDs when she has fewer pledged delegates. Your post is rooted in a lie.

[niyad]

15. you yourself used the word screaming, so, sorry, you proved my question.

[cali]

16. um, go take a logic course, dear. You sorely need one.

Or a remedial critical thinking skills course. Surely your local Community College could help you out. My comment didn't prove anything you asserted. And claiming it does, just makes you look silly.... or dishonest. Take your pick, hon.

[niyad]

18. nice and snarky, dear. but I understood what you said just fine. go try that on someone else

[JackORoses]

17. Obama has won the race for Pledged Delegates. Hillary cannot catch up.

The Superdelegates should go to him, and they will.
