Even superdelegates can make mistakes - super mistakes, as it turns out. As the number of free delegates dwindles with Clinton and Obama still in a deadlock, the idea that superdelegates could, would or should decide the nomination is gaining popularity and inducing panic. Some Clinton supporters are arguing that this is precisely why the Michigan and Florida delegates should be seated- to minimize the need for party insiders to break the tie. Both campaigns are hedging their bets, careful not to discount the idea in case it works in their favor and, in fact, wooing as many superdelegates as possible, just in case. What do you think?

This is one of the closest delegate races in recent history. (and one of the most interesting might I add due to the nature of both candidates) Both Clinton and Obama could use any endorsement they can find. I wouldn't be surprised to see more and more "Super-delegates" come out of the woodwork and take sides as the weeks pass.
