I think Clyburn may be a very smart man
By saying from now that he'll be announcing on June 3rd, I think he's giving the wink wink nudge nudge for others to do the same. Think about it, if 100 undecides say they are going to announce on June 3rd, that will solidify the sense that the race will be decided (among the media, which of course pushes virtually everything else) In this way they are not directly interfering with the primaries, but also they are not seen as hesitating which would be seen as tacit approval for the process going much further than June 3rd

1. I have read that nearly ALL of the remaining Superdelegates are for
Obama. Once he hits the magic number, wherever it ends up being, 2026 to 2117, the rest can pile on.

3. Clyburn is a very smart man and people have known that for a long time
But I don't think the SDs need a wink or a nudge - they have been talking amongst themselves and it has been well worked out.

6. I think HIllary got most of her Supers back in '07 when she was the inevitable one
and those SD wanted to be with "the winner."

8. Here we go, Obama, here we go!
This is exciting. We are mere days away from having our first African American major party nominee for President of the United States of America.
