It's Over

Could someone please inform the Clintons?

"Capitol Hill insiders say the battle for congressional superdelegates is over," according to The Politico, and Sen. Barack Obama appears to have won the majority.

A Wall Street Journal story yesterday came to the same conclusion.

"While more than 80 Democrats in the House and Senate have yet to state their preferences in the race for the Democratic nomination, sources said Tuesday that most of them have already made up their minds and have told the campaigns where they stand."

Said Sen. Sen. Claire McCaskill, a supporter of Obama: "The majority of superdelegates I've talked to are committed, but it is a matter of timing."

I don't know if the source of this story is good or not. The Politico has made mistakes. But at the same time, it makes sense to me. It just seems that no one is telling Hill/Bill yet though. On the other hand, they may know and are just hoping for an implosion of some kind between now and when votes are actually cast.
