ETA from Marylanddem, below: And don't forget my own county exec Jack Johnson - switched Pledged delegate from Clinton to Obama.

1. I think I can unleash the 200

from their self-imposed imprisonment on my ignore list.

It's OVER for Camp Clinton, no matter what.

[lligrd]

4. But The Tantrums Have Just Begun nt

[Eurobabe]

23. the tantrums are now irrelevant.

[Mz Pip]

9. Wow

I'm impressed. I have one. Just one. But it is a very awful one.

Though it won't be over until she says it's over. She's not going to give up just because she doesn't have the delegates.

[Eurobabe]

24. I can't ignore people that easily, so they go on my ignore list

BWAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHHAAA!!! What irony. :hi:

[sellitman]

14. 200?

Wow.....must have been a quiet primary season for you here on DU.

:wow:

I wonder if you can even read my post? lol

[Eurobabe]

22. yes I can hear you.

:hi:

I even have a couple of OBAMA posters on it too. Many have been tombstoned.

[Yael]

15. I paroled all but the core 2 who will remain there until hell freezes over

:D

[Eurobabe]

25. I can think of about core 10 who perhaps shall

remain incarcerated forever. :D

[Tesha]

19. No, you don't want to do that quite yet.

Well, except for the ones who've been tombstoned,
and I'm sure their names are legion.

[ampad]

28. I have about that many

But I just cannot get them all for some reason. Some have escaped my ignore list, oh well. Oh also I don't plan on taking them off my list once the primary is over. Something tells me that once it sets in for them that it is over that they will really show their stuff.

[Ichingcarpenter]

2. Four a day.... good news

I think tomorrow will be a big day for some reason.

[Lucky 13]

3. It's happening...

And now with PLEDGED (not super... PLEDGED) delegates now beginning to switch over... it's ours.

Gobama.

[MindMatter]

30. This is not something we should clebrate

I doubt that Obama asked for the PD to switch. He should denounce it. It makes Obama look as sleazy as Clinton. It isn't necessary and it is a terrible precedent.

[Lucky 13]

38. I'm not celebrating. Merely pointing out fact.

And there is no law or rule against it so why should Obama denounce it? He didn't ASK Jack Johnson to switch over. He didn't do anything sleazy like campaign to switch over pledged delegates. It's happening because even people that once supported Hillary are either recognizing the end or have become disgusted with her. Or both.

It's ONE MAN expressing his opinion.

[MindMatter]

39. This is the sort of thing that could backfire

If Obama doesn't renounce this act, then he is endorsing Clinton's position that the PDs ought to be free to vote their conscience. In fact, they are elected with the expectation that they will honor their pledge, at least in the initial round of voting. We ought to insist that all PDs do exactly that, otherwise it makes a farce out of the process.

By endorsing Clinton's argument, this does open the door for Obama's PDs to switch over to Clinton. I think it is unlikely, but why even go there at all? This is no good for anybody.

[marylanddem]

5. And don't forget my own county exec Jack Johnson

the first pledged delegate to switch to Barack.

[NightWatcher]

6. he's averaging 1 per hour this morning

I hope he gets more supers today than Hillary nets in WV

[SoonerPride]

7. I think they release more today than ever in order to defuse the W Va loss

I expect maybe 20-30 announcements today in a deluge to steal headlines and make the punditocracy tonight say, "so what, look he got more supers today than lost in W Va."

That's how I would play it.

Let's see if I'm right.

[Egnever]

10. tomorrow would be better IMHO

[cali]

11. What makes you think they won't be releasing the names of more SDs

tomorrow. I think the Obama campaign knows what they're doing.

[Egnever]

17. easy killer

[The Doctor.]

12. Welcome to the week of the flood.

It had to happen sometime.

The drums are starting to beat the dirge for Clinton.

[madwivoter]

8. K&R!

Thanks for posting some good news :)

Reading posts in GD: P is like trudging through sludge today...

[me b zola]

13. K&R!

:woohoo:

Me thinks the flood will continue, pick up, tomorrow. :)

[NYCGirl]

16. And the day is still young!

:thumbsup:

[The_Counsel]

18. WOW! Ray Nagin???

I half expected that guy to endorse McCain...

...then rant and weep uncontrollably afterward. :evilgrin:

I don't 100% agree with his politics, but it's good to have him aboard, I guess.

To paraphrase Joe Pesci:

Always the delegates.

Always the delegates...

[goclark]

26. Good for Nagin and for all the rest and good for US!

[thewiseguy]

20. Go Obama!

[Kaylee]

21. Hey! You're in PG too....

Glad to see Jack Johnson came to his senses. Maryland is Obamaland. :)

[Hepburn]

27. Woot!

:applause: :bounce:

Thanks for the good news! :hi:

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

29. Wait, on tuesday?!

Wow.

[Kittycat]

32. Every day is Obama Day

Even on Sunday, he managed to nab one :)

[EnviroBat]

31. I have a canned response for those formally on the ignore list...

"I'm sorry for your loss..." That's it. I will no longer argue with the Shilllbots. There's no need to get worked up over it anymore. I'm digging this victorious feeling, and it's time to start going for McCain's throat.

[Imagevision]

33. It would be great, she wins the vote - Obama does a sweep in superdelegates....yes!

[nomorewhopper]

34. gobama! YES WE DID!!

[OneSelf]

35. That's awesome...

Keep 'em coming!

[grantcart]

36. talk about a hijacked thread - thanks kitty

[dana_b]

37. Thank you!! best post of the morning.

You have made my day. :bounce:
SO, what IS the "Pelosi Number"? People on another thread were disussing it but noone could agree upon the number. Whatever it is, it sounds like he'll get there next week (unless a slew of SDs come out for him this week).

[Scurrilous]

40. K & R
