Superdelegates are changing their minds

Soaring Obama starting to reel in superdelegates - The Boston Globe:
WASHINGTON - The Democratic superdelegates are starting to follow the voters - straight to Barack Obama.

In just the past two weeks as Obama has reeled off 11 straight victories, more than two dozen of them have climbed aboard his presidential campaign, according to a survey by the Associated Press. Hillary Clinton's are beginning to jump ship, abandoning her for Obama or deciding they now are undecided.

The result: He's narrowing her once-commanding lead among these superdelegates, the Democratic officeholders and party officials who attend the national convention and can vote for whomever they choose."
