This is a great site for learning all about Superdelegates. It lists who the Superdelegates are, who they are supporting and provides graphical information about the trends of the Superdelegates. I find it interesting that since May 2, 2 of Clinton's Superdelegates have jumped ship and switched their allegiance to Obama. Also, since May 2, Obama has gained a total of 13 Superdelegates while Hillary has only gained 1.

Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

Of the remaining 262 superdelegates, 119 of them are DNC members. It looks like my earlier prediction of 3-5 superdelegates a day coming out for Obama is coming true. Obama held a lot of Illinois Superdelegates back from endorsing for a time like this, when Clinton is on the ropes and about to go down for the count. Superdelegates could provide the final push for the Obama campaign.

    Make that 9 today. He is starting to ignore Hillary and run against McCain, good idea.
