Even in Obama turmoil, no good news for Clinton

May 1, 2008

If you would have told Hillary Clinton three months ago that by May 1st she would have taken the states of California, Texas, Ohio and Pennsylvania, and that Barack Obama's pastor (the same one that baptized his children and oversaw his marriage) would have made a comment that America brought 9/11 on itself...she would have at least figured she would have the lead right?

But despite a recent poll that shows confidence in his candidacy has taken a hit, Obama still claimed more superdelegates than Clinton did in the last 24 hours (five to four), one of which was Joe Andrew, the Democratic National Chairman under Bill Clinton.

While gaining in the polls is good news, losing more superdelegates must be a huge frustration for a Clinton campaign that feels like it should be gaining ground instead of losing it.
