Is Obama Buying Superdelegate Loyalty?
He is; that's the theory of Ed Lasky at American Thinker. Obama's campaign gurus have built a powerful, Internet-based activist and financial support system, based on small donations. Obama has used this mine of gold to support the political campaign of superdelegates (besting Clinton's support, 2 to 1). If he gets the nomination and loses the election to McCain, as he almost certainly will, his super database of donors and activists and superfund of donations will be available to continue to help Democratic politicians loyal to him and to fend off another try by Hillary in 2012. Plaudits to Lasky--the first original analysis I've read in a while about the Obama-Clinton competition.
