Yet another Superdelegate for Obama - Rep. Ben Chandler, , KY
http://primebuzz.kcstar.com/?q=node/11354

Chandler is apparently a big name in KY politics, coming from a much-loved political family (unless you're a Republican, I suppose...).

1. Yuppers.
Since 4/20, Obama had gained 9 super delegates, and Clinton 3. The count per DemConWatch now stands at C = 257; O = 239

19 delegates apart now. Way back on Super Tuesday she was ahead of him by 100. And there's only 297 left for them to divvy up.

4. I think the IA one made 20 and this is now 19.
This from the Des Moines Register (prior to this KY Superdelegate):

http://www.desmoinesregister.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080429/NEWS/80429020/-1/NEWS04

There are roughly 80 superdelegates. Clinton has the support of 264, while Obama has 244.

6. Drip drip drip...
Just one more of the SIXTY expected to announce for Obama over the next few weeks.
