John King on CNN is doing a bang up job re Superdelegates.

He explained the press keeps in contact with them on a regular basis, and were any of them flipping it would be or would have been reported. He also said that she has more SD in her pocket but wants them to hold off until after Tuesday.

states and then Indiana.

GOP doesn't have unpledged delegates, so they were going to have to come up with an elaborate plan to steal it from the Don.

SD are party establishment, Sanders was not a democrat until a year ago and his registering as an independent for his 2018 reelection proves he has no intention of remaining on. Why in the world would a SD support you in this situation?
