Look Out For Jumping Superdelegates

with the majority of delegates today, superdelegates are expected to start jumping to obama.


nyt: Voters in Kentucky and Oregon will likely give Barack Obama enough pledged delegates tonight to give him a majority of the delegates awarded through the nominating contests — which could cause more undeclared superdelegates to jump off the fence and support him as well.
(One superdelegate — Iowa Democratic Chairman Scott Brennan — is set to endorse Mr. Obama this morning.)
Senator Obama will hold a rally tonight not in Kentucky or Oregon, but back in Des Moines, where the Iowa caucus gave him his first win. In his remarks, however, he won’t “declare victory against Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton or suggest the Democratic primary should end until the final three contests are finished on June 3,” write Jeff Zeleny and Patrick Healy of The New York Times.
