Wooing the Super Delegates
We've heard from all of the former Presidential candidates, and some other big-name politicians, that they have been contacted by both the Obama and Clinton campaigns asking for an endorsement.

Just got me thinking -- what do you think they say? Does it go beyond "I need your support and would appreciate your endorsement."?

Are deals/promises made?

It must be really tough, seeing as how they're politicians, after all, to say to the potential next POTUS, "sorry, I'm going with the other candidate".

I'd love to get an NSA tape of some of those conversations...:7

1. I was thinking the same thing.
What do you say when you are having the same coversation over and over?

Specifically -- Biden and Edwards. How many conversations have taken place so far?

Good to see you Gateley! :hi:

2. Hey Yael!
Good to see YOU! :hi:

I was thinking about Edwards and Biden, too, and wondering if they're still getting the calls.
