Interesting Presidential comment from Al Giordano at "The Field"
He is talking about some misgivings that the Labor Council of New York had with it's early endorsement of Senator Clinton. Al writes about the thinking now of Labor and some others about the status of this Pres race.:

Although it seems unlikely that the Council will withdraw its endorsement of Clinton, you can add it to the status of Al Gore, John Edwards, Nancy Pelosi, Joe Biden, Chris Dodd and other party leaders that are prepared to weigh in and give a gentle push if the Clinton campaign doesn’t find for itself a graceful exit after March 4.

There are Super-Delegates and then there are Super Duper Extra-Special Delegates. I guess that some of them are preparing to step in after the primaries in Texas and Ohio and make their thoughts known on where the Democratic Party goes and how it gets there.

Very interesting observations.

2. I agree and I'm so glad the fundraising was successful
enough for Al to be able to go to Texas and report on the primary there.

although anything can still happen in this remarkable political year, it does seem as if the winds are blowing Sen. Obama's way now. It's interesting that so mnay high-profile Democrats have not endorsed yet. I tend to agree with Al, they are waiting a while and will come in like a sort of Greek chorus to announce the "will of the gods" on what should happen to end the drama.
