"Undecided" Superdelegates more of a problem than Hillary

Notice how most of the superdelegates who are (or were) well-known elected officials have all already stated who they are supporting. They know what the issues are, they know the factors to consider, they've got little to gain by waiting and they're ready to move on.
Most of the "undecided" superdelegates are the party officials and other political nobodies. They wish they were political superstars, but they are not. As such they are going to ride this thing out a little longer and try and milk some celebrity (or bribes/favors) out of it. Pathetic.

The whole concept of super delegates is laughable.
Their whole purpose was to keep the party from doing exactly what it's very clearly going to do: nominate someone who's not only a sure loser, but who's also likely to hurt the party in the down-ballot races.

you mean like the young democrats who went public with the million dollar bribe offered to them by that hillary supporter? should he have offered less? and what does it say for the rest of the undecideds who aren't political nobodies? how many of them are milkers, and how many of them are still just a little scared shitless by the Clintons? i say that agreeing with you that there may be allure to being actively pursued instead of being committed.
what happens if the Clintons wish for something bad to happen to Obama comes true?
And cuda, that's for the voters to decide.
