poor saps who bought Brokaw's story--like me--don't fret. So did Rep. Lacy Clay, Obama’s Missouri co-chairman and pledged Obama superdelegate himself. Clay told the Columbia Missourian yesterday that the 50 superdelegates would come out of the closet %26quot;later this week%26quot;--and then took the stats one step further, claiming that %26quot;the campaign is Obama’s.%26quot; “[Sen. Clinton] will not make up those numbers,” Clay said. “This race is over.” Which wouldn't have been true in any case--an additional 200 or so superdelegates would've still remained uncommitted, and Clinton and Obama would've been roughly tied among these party leaders. But it's even less true today.
Now that Clinton's death-defying wins in Texas and Ohio have prolonged the contest and slowed Obama's momentum among party poobahs, there's a bigger story to watch: an increasing willingness among superdelegates to band together and seek concessions from the presidential candidates in return for votes at the convention. Last night, the Politico reported that bloc of uncommitted Ohio supers--perhaps including Reps. March Kaptur, Dennis Kucinich, Tim Ryan, Zack Space, Betty Sutton and Charlie Wilson, and Sen. Sherrod Brown--is %26quot;withholding endorsements from Barack Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton until one or the other offers a concrete proposal to protect American jobs,%26quot; according to two state Democrats.
At this point, everyone knows that Obama and Clinton need superdelegate support to put them over the top--the superdelegates included. With the contest now likely to continue until the convention, I suspect it won't be long before others start making similar demands

Ahh, George! You were so close! You and this conflation of speech and money. While you may be in line with the current courts, as someone obsessed with original intent, do you really believe that the founding fathers defined speech in such a way that would dis-proportionally award more speech (and therefore influence) to some and not others? Isn’t speech the very quality that a person has idependant of status and money? In the fusion of democracy and capitalism that currently defines American life, speech is the only freedom left that transcends class, but when you say that money is speech, then you disenfranchize all those without it – surely not an original intent. Oh, and where does the constitution directly say that money is speech? As a strict constructionist, isn’t that a problem?

Socialists will never understand - when the Gov't is in the business of handing out subsidies, tax breaks and making regulations - who wins? It is the big corporations, who have the lawyers and lobbyists.

As Citizens for Tax Justice (www.ctj.org) reported a few years ago, many corporations accept incentives from state and city governments without ever meeting the conditions they agreed to (number of jobs created, for instance). For these companies, the incentive is merely added to the bottom line without so much as a %26quot;thank you%26quot; to the taxpayers who gave it to them.
I say NO incentives, ever. It is not our role as taxpayers to assume corporate risks of any kind.

Booster SOCIALISM? Come on, George, that is really beneath you. Call it by its real name -- croney capitalism or corporate welfare. Don't engage in Kafka-like political framing by using words you know people will associate with liberalism. What you describe is a failing of conservatism, of the Right. Yet the words you chose -- socialism -- make it seem like a sin of the Left. That really is dishonest and you know it.
