[JaneyVee]

Bernie Sanders argued for MONTHS that superdelegates were undemocratic. Now he wants them to rescue his campaign.

4. Oh! That's a *REAL* headline? :-P

5. They've been working on the supers all along.

They lobbied the supers in states they have done well in to switch.

8. When did Bernie argue that super delegates were undemocratic?

I mean they are, but when did he argue that?

9. Superdelegats are one of the issues that is really fun to review from 2008 on DU....

Every single cycle superdelegates cause contention. 2008 was full of Obama supporters who are now Hillary supporters wailing that she was rigging the supers, Obama detractors saying he was buying their votes, Obama himself made a statement that the supers should vote with the electorate and not switch the outcome.....for amusement, look some up.

37% of delegates are have been awarded. She is 41.1% of the way to the nomination. Bernie is 30.8% away. She is in the lead. 64% of delegates still on the table.
