Obama is set to announce today that two more superdelegates are backing his candidacy for the Democratic nomination - the chair and vice-chair of the Maryland Democratic Party.
This means in the past four days, 9 SD’s have endorsed Obama with 4 more endorsing Clinton — bringing the running totals to 268-256 in favor of Hillary. (In the past 36 days, Obama has picked up a net of 40 to Hillary’s 18.)

Have to love all that Hlilary momentum.
All you need to know about Bill and Hillary is this: If they had to choose between Obama winning the nomination and the WH or McCain winning, I think every democrat in the country knows what they’d vote for.
That’s why the super delegates won’t swing to her. And that’s why she won’t win the nomination.
She and Bill only care about themselves and their own power. They don’t care about the party. They don’t care about party unity. They don’t care whether the democrats hold the Congress or state governorships or legislatures. They only care that they are in the White House.
If I was Obama, and I win in Novemeber, I’d appoint Hillary to a cabinet position or some high post, wait a few moths…and then fire her. She’d be out of that job, and out of the Senate.
