College Junior Breakfasts With Chelsea Clinton
Jason Rae is a typical junior in college. He spends several hours a day in class at Marquette University in Wisconsin where he is majoring in history and political science. He is closely following the Marquette basketball team and has the Golden Eagles' schedule memorized.

The Note: Barack's Big RollBut not many 21-year-olds start their Monday with a personal breakfast with Chelsea Clinton, as Rae did this morning at the student union at the nearby University of Milwaukee.

Rae got the one-on-one treatment from the former — and possibly future — first daughter because he is a Democratic National Committee member from Wisconsin and thus a "super delegate," one of the 796 free agents who can back any candidate in the race for the Democratic nomination....

Rae has been called on his cell phone by former President Clinton and former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright who tried to woo him to the Clinton side and Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry, who was pushing for Rae to endorse Obama.

1. Yes, they interviewed him on MSNBC
about an hour ago. Did you miss it? He said he wouldn't pick either candidate until the convention. I was hoping he would pick Hillary but he isn't telling.

4. Abrams asked him if he would follow the wishes of the voters
He responded that he would vote "in the way I feel would best move forward the party and the nation."

Short answer - maybe yes, maybe no.
