The Barack Obama campaign claims they are 10 delegates away from clinching the nomination. TPM Election Central has a tally of recent super-delegates that just pledged their votes for Obama.
• Former President Jimmy Carter, who had dropped hints for quite a while that he was for Obama, and officially confirmed the news with the Associated Press.
• South Carolina Congressman John Spratt.
• DNC member Ralph Dawson, from Hillary Clinton's home state of New York.
• Massachusetts DNC member Deb Kozikowski.
• Massachusetts Congressman John Olver.
• DNC member Joyce Beatty of Ohio.
• DNC member Jennifer Dechant of Maine.
• DNC member Maria Chappelle-Nadal of Missouri.
• State party vice chair Carnelia Fondren of Mississippi.
• DNC member John Perez of California.
• Six Michigan super-dels, who each count as half a vote: Detroit Mayor and DNC member Kwame Kilpatrick, Congresswoman Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick, and DNC members Debbie Dingell, Rick Wiener and Joyce Lalonde, and state party vice chair Tina Abbott.
• Florida DNC member Diane Glasser, who counts as half a vote.
• DNC member Kamil Hasan of California, who has switched from Clinton.
• DNC member Ben Johnson of the District of Columbia, who has switched from Clinton.
• Congresswoman Maxine Waters of California, who is defecting from Hillary Clinton.
• Delaware DNC members Harriet Windsor and Rhett Ruggerio, and state party chair John Daniello. Ruggerio has switched from Clinton.
• Congressman Dennis Moore of Kansas.
• Maryland DNC member Bel Leong-Hong.
Hillary Clinton picked up 3.5 super-delegates today.
This race was over long ago. Hillary is finally realizing the truth and desperately talking herself up as Obama's VP. Hillary ran a race-baiting campaign. Bill Clinton insinuated that Obama only won South Carolina because he is black. Members of the Clinton campaign spreaded the lie that Obama is a Muslim. Hillary declared John McCain more fit to serve than Obama.
Nancy Pelosi: I think the Clinton administration has fairly ruled that out, by claiming that Senator McCain would be a better Commander in Chief than Obama.
I think the Clintons screwed themselves, too.
