Will the Supers please end this stupidity now?

http://demconwatch.blogspot.com/2008/01/superdelegate-endorsement-notes.html - my new favorite website (present company excluded)

South Dakota and Montana dont count for shit- Sorry Dakotians and Montanians, but the race is over but the screaming. The nominee will need some Super Delegates to come to their side to push the Nom over the top. Hillary needs a lot more than Obama (who has won the majority of the pledged delegates-which was the threshold for many Supers)

IF enough Supers 25 (guessing Obama gets at least 10 of the 36 needed as of 11:55AM EDT from SD and Mont.) would announce before tonight, Clinton would have no choice but to acknowledge reality. This "I am the stronger candidate" bullshit is way too divisive and rumors of taking this to the Convention are not helping the real campaign which is against McCain and four more years of Bush-policies and war.

Obama claims to have 30-36 Supers "in the bank". He needs to release these supers now so that he will hit the magic number du jour of 2118. This will force Hillary to acknowledge Obama as the winner or show that she will fight and tear the party apart. The remaining Supers and party leadership could then let it be known that Obama achieved the number of delegates and thus is the NOMINEE of the DEMOCRATIC PARTY.
