Is Obama supposed to pick up more SD today?

1. Not sure, but I know HRC lost some pledged delegates in CA yesterday

After the count, turns out she didn't do as well as originally thought.

3. There is a rumor

both supported and denied by people in the Obama campaign that there is a block of 50 ready to commit.

If this happens, it won't be on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday--unless it happens late saturday or early sunday right before the Sunday talk shows.

Most likely it will happen (if it happens) after either WY or MS.

Obama is going to ultimately need a a maximum of a little over 40% of the total Super Delegates prior to getting the nonination.

He now has around 26%. There are 43% out there to get the remaining 15-16% from. If the block of 50 happens about 32%, and need 9%-10% of what will then be the remaining 37%.

Clinton winning the nomination with Super delegates is an untenable pipe dream no matter when the supers decide to commit. She will simply need to many to overturn the pledged delegate count for it to be even on the remote fringes reality.
