With one day to go before the NH primary, and Barack Obama seeming to be pulling away a bit from Clinton in the NH polls, one question occurred to me to ask.
A lot of the delegate lead that Clinton now holds over Obama in the Democratic primary race is based on the super delegate commitments that she holds. So let us speculate that Obama pulls out a NH primary win for a moment. Do the Democratic big wigs (committee chairmen, state party chairmen, etc), start to re-evaluate their commitments to Clinton?
I would not be surprised at all to start to see a bit of erosion in the super delegate commitments to Clinton, should Obama pull out a significant win in NH.
But time will tell. Mean while, I'm getting the popcorn out to watch the show.

Will Hillary's super delegates start to defect if Obama wins NH?

I still think Hillary Clinton will win because she has the money and organization. I think the MSM are going along with Obama for the drama (hey, that rhymes), but will return to Clinton soon.
Nice blog, hope you check out mine.
After seeing Hillary have her little teary moment last night, I'm begining to wonder if she can actually stand up to a heated primary and a general election that will only get more stressful.
