Texas DNC Denise Johnson Switch from Clinton to Obama:

From the Dallas Morning News:

"While the Web site Politico.com lists Democratic national committeewoman Denise Johnson of Houston as a Clinton superdelegate, she said she voted for Mr. Obama on Tuesday and that she'll probably cast her convention vote for the candidate who wins more pledged delegates – very likely, Mr. Obama."

7. I do not know if there is an official list od super delegates endorsements
Not sure I would trust such a list if available

I got this from the superdelegate page on Politico

Oddly, thye rely a good bit on http://demconwatch.blogspot.com/2008/01/superdelegates-who-havent-endorsed.html and they have her as nuetral although they may not have updated the site.

12. she is neutral officially
The report above said she's inclined to validate Obama's lead in pledged delegates, but it's not an official superdelegate vote endorsement.

It is, however, a loss of a SD for Hillary.

6. Apparently, since Clinton "won" Texas, the media doesn't want to shift the message
Such as stating that Obama actually has more Texas delegates now. I guess they need Texas to continue to "matter" so they can keep this thing going into August.

11. Quit now Clinton, you idiot
Stop trying to ruin Obama. Most of the remaining superdelegates have said to the media that they will go with whoever wins the most pledged delegates. Pelosi (convention chairwoman) and Dean have said the same thing. HILLARY CANNOT WIN THE MOST PLEDGED DELEGATES even with a re-vote in Michigan and Florida. Leave the race now you fucking idiot.
