Just last week, Nancy Pelosi was saying that the Super Delegates should be guided by the overall direction of the pledged delegates (a position shared by Obama, of course). She drew criticism from Clinton supporters, but I never expected her to back-pedal as she did today [1] on Good Morning America.
Smells like Hillary got to her… it’s amazing how much influence the Clinton’s can exert… is there anyone she cannot bend to her will? Okay, Barack Obama.
What’s really surprising is that it had looked like the Democratic Party Leadership was working toward circling the wagons and establishing a unified front to end the contest by June to avoid a contentious convention. Pelosi’s reversal seems to be a sign that those attempts are failing. Good news for Republicans.
Hat Tip: Memeorandum.
