20. Its all about influencing the Super Delegates
This finally hit me, when the mass media kept pointing out that so many of Senator Clinton's supporters said they would not vote for Senator Obama.. or would even actively campaign against him for Senator McCain..putting the Supreme Court in the mix and Roe v Wade..they are trying to influence the Super Delegates.. the supporters for Senator Obama for the most part will vote the democratic ticket.. so if you were a super delegate, and saw that one group was more willing to turn out than another it might seem to influence the decicison..

Of course this is completely faulty thinking IF that is the case.. and a small number of people yelling fire in the theater as it were.. make a lot of noise.. so this maybe more smoke and mirrors by a few activists than the sentiments and loyalties of good democrats who happen to support Senator Clinton.. though I would think after a few battles I have witnessed.. people are taking their anger at each other out on the candidates.
