Yesterday Barack Obama overtook Hillary Clinton in the number of superdelegate endorsements. For a couple months Obama has been pointing to his lead in the popular vote, in the number of states won, and in the number of pledged delegates won, but he continued to trail in superdelegates. In fact, Clinton's lead here gave the race a false sense of closeness. However, after his strong showing in North Carolina and near-win in Indiana, Obama has been picking up handfuls of endorsements. Using any legitimate measure Obama has locked up the nomination, now it's just a matter of how Clinton will end her campaign.
Bravo to both candidates. With the exception of a couple slides (Wright, lapel pins, schmoozing with right-wingers, etc) this campaign has been a fantastic display of two extremely talented candidates, both of whom would have been great presidents. Now it's time to turn up the pressure on McCain and win in the fall!
