Rep. Lacy Clay (D-MO), Sen. Barack Obama's Missouri co-chairman and pledged Obama superdelegate, said Obama will gain the support of 50 undecided Democratic superdelegates later this week, according to the Columbia Missourian.
Said Clay: "She (Sen. Clinton) will not make up those numbers. This race is over."Former NBC News anchor Tom Brokaw first reported yesterday that Obama had about 50 secretly committed superdelegates. However, The Hotline quotes an unnamed Obama campaign aide who says the report is "wrong."
Well now this advances the story quite a bit, no? This isn't some off the record comment to Tom Brokaw. It's an on the record statement by one of his Missouri co-chairs. And sure, an anonymous Obama aide said the report is wrong, but wrong how? And why anonymously?
Stay tuned...
