That would be "DemocratIC" National Committeeman Ben C. Pangelinan.
Hotline has no editors? Or no sense of journalistic objectivity?
Where is Faux News anyway?
"Democratic National Comittee" please. The GOP stenography reveals your bias.
Pangelinan is Obama's third Super D endorsement of the day.
This information is about as useful as breaking news from the National Enquirer.
The nominee must win a majority of all delegates to win the nomination. Super delegates comprise about 20% of the total number of delegates.
The nominee isn't the one who comes into the covention ahead in either the popular vote or the delegate count. The winner is the one who gets a very specific number of votes from the delegates on the floor at the convention.
Yet for all your obsession with which superdelegates are endorsing Obama or "the math" that makes a Clinton win all but impossible, you fail to acknowledge that simple fact.
Tallying the superdelegates who endorse means nothing because they could change their minds every day until the convention vote is taken. Remind me again, what purpose this serves? Oh yeah, to get Hillary to suspend her campaign so Obama can look out over the convention at all those joyful faces....
The willful ignorance I've seen here and elsewhere surrounding the nomination process just astounds me.
Hmmm. Why do I suspect if these superdelegate endorsements were for your candidate you'd be singing a somewhat different tune?

Really? And who would my candidate be?
Go peddle your tin foil hats elsewhere.
It's true that superdelegates can change their vote...but look at the facts: Several superdelegates who were previously pledged to Clinton switched to Obama. Not a single Obama superdelegate has switched to Clinton. With South Dakota, Montana, and Puerto Rico as the remaining contests, it is unlikely that any of their outcomes would provide a reason to switch from Obama to Clinton. Even if Clinton gets most of what she wants in Michigan and Florida, superdelegates aren't going to retroactively declare that "momentum" and move towards Clinton en masse, which is what would be necessary to overcome Obama's delegate lead.
yeah corinne get real
I know I have been waiting for the Pangelnan non before making up my mind. By the way, if it is DemocratIC, why aren't
they counting the votes in Florida and Michigan?
Did I hear this right?
"Obama tells Virginia crowd DNC will no longer accept money from lobbyists"
That explains everything...now that they have selected not elected him for the nominee??
