DSW herself has said that the new media should not be counting Super-Delegates...

So why do they?

This is more important now than ever.

Whatever one thinks of Debbie Wasserman Schultz, the Chair of the Democratic National Committee, we can all agree on one thing: there is no greater authority on the topic of so-called "super-delegates" to the Democratic National Convention (an event Wasserman Schultz runs) than Wasserman Schultz herself.

And Wasserman Schultz has been clear, as evident from the video above, that the national news media must stop tallying and reporting "super-delegates" immediately.

"The way the media is reporting this is incorrect," Wasserman Schultz told Rachel Maddow of MSNBC on February 20th. "There are not pledged delegates -- or 'super-delegates' -- earned at any of these caucus contests."

She went on to note that super-delegates are "free to decide [who to vote for] anytime up until July," and can change their mind at any time -- one reason they can't be reported as being conclusively attached to any particular candidate. "So combining them [the voted-on or 'earned' delegates and the super-delegates] at each phase of this contest is not an accurate picture of how this works," she said.

1. I's take DWS out of it.

She is a liar. Deceit is her tongue, and fabrication her language. The question is valid not because of her terrible example, but despite it.

2. Agreed, but I think when even the biggest Hillary shill out there, speaks as the head of the party..

...the news media should listen and report the actual pledged delegates only.

3. Good point.

Thank you!

4. I saw this mentioned in another article in the Huffington Post

For all my criticism of her, I totally agree on this count. The problem is the media is going to do whatever the hell they want.
