How many supers do you think will announce today?

[briv1016]

As of this post it is 4-2 Obama. How many do you predict will announce by tonight?

1. approx 10.

2. I think most will wait until after tomorrows contests are over and then come...

out big time.

8. I agree with you

Once "all" the votes have been counted it will be hard for Hillary to try and come up with some new set of "goal posts", or some new way to say she is the winner. When the SD's come out, or most of them, it will be all she wrote as far as the party is concerned! Now Hillary may try and take this to a new level, but if she does not get this week and do so with grace, her political future will not exist, at least not in the "real" world!

3. 5-6 total for Obama

Currently has 3

5. now 4

4. True, but 2 of those are 1/2 delegates (from Michigan)

So its 3-2.

6. 12

7. 17 Supers just said they are coming out on Wednesday.

9. It would be a nice dramatic touch if it were just enough to allow MT and SD push him over the top,

but I think he'd need around 18 or so more supers for that to happen.

10. What if they all go for Hillary?

Can you envision the warmth and unity from all the Obama supporters here if that happened?

11. TN has 6 left (excluding Gore) and per my phone calls none of them will endorse tonight and

only one will endorse POSSIBLY after the results tomorrow night.

Many of them are on the record saying they will NOT endorse until the convention.

[WeDidIt]

12. So far 6 delegates (3.5 delegate votes) to 2

This is good. They are doing what the Supers are supposed to do.

13. Oh, 1.5 more for Obama.

Just a guess.

But most will wait for Montana and South Dakota. Will enough announce in time for the MT and SD pledged delegates Obama wins to put him over the top? That's the big question of the moment.

14. BREAKING: Obama will roll out enough SDs tomorrow to clinch 2118 tomorrow night.

I don't have any more posts available until later, so if someone wants to create a thread on it - do it.

Uncommitted Pennsylvania Rep. Altmire says Obama is pushing supers to endorse him during the day Tuesday so he’ll have enough delegates to declare victory that evening.

Tells the AP: “He apparently is telling people that he has the numbers, and that’s what’s going to happen, at which point it would become moot what the rest of us do.”
