And Obama just got another Superdelegate!

http://demconwatch.blogspot.com/2008/03/alabama-add-on-superdelegate-named.html

We welcome Stewart Burkhalter to the league of superdelegates to the 2008 Democratic Convention:

The State Democratic Executive Committee on Saturday elected Alabama AFL-CIO President Stewart Burkhalter as an unpledged add-on delegate for the convention.

Burkhalter, who was backed by the Obama campaign, won by six voters over Jerome Green of Birmingham, who was supported by Clinton's team.

Burkhalter said he will vote for Obama at the Democratic National Convention in Denver in August.

We will update the lists and tables shortly.

2. We have a really strange way

to get a President elected. We have all this delegate and Super delegate shit and THEN we have the whole popular vote versus the electoral votes.

However if it is the game than THANK YOU Mr. New Obama super delegate.

5. Your type of posts are disgusting.

I have been to multiple topics were you try to pull that crap. Nobody is buying that crap.

The super system sucks and I say that as an obama supporter and it doesent matter who they support. However that is the way this election works and YOU CANT CHANGE THE GAME HALFWAY THROUGH!

The super issue will have to be dealt with after the GE.

Take your crap elseware!
