42. Cake? Eat it? I must have both.
In another thread, HRC is criticized for a letter to Pelosi asking her to back away from her assertion that superdelegates should support the winner of the pledged delegate count.

Obama agrees with Pelosi that they should pile on the delegate winner.

Yet, every day there's another thread cheering because another superdelegate has endorsed Obama, and now calling those who do not cowards.

Either superdelegates vote as they see fit, or they vote in accordance with the outcome at the convention.

If HRC convinces the superdelegates to vote for her, it'll validate the views you hold.

I guess the having-cake-eating-it-too view is that the superdelegates should all endorse BO because conventional wisdom just knows he's going to win.
