Gay superdelegates

Or, to be more succinct, "fabulousdelegates."

Douglas Wilder, the (African-American) Mayor of Richmond, VA, warned on one of the Sunday morning talk shows of the potential negative consequences of Clinton securing the nomination through superdelegates. The majority of African-Americans have voted for Obama. They will not take kindly to being denied the Dem. nomination by the superdelegates.

The superdelegate system itself is pretty gay.

At a time when momentum and political pundits seem to favor Barack Obama winning the Democratic presidential nomination, other indicators suggest the LGBT community's support is still largely behind Hillary Clinton, except in Texas... "I'm living and breathing it," said Eric Stern, a former head of the National Stonewall Democrats group who supported Democrat John Edwards until he dropped out last month. Stern says he has been "tasked" by the Obama campaign to "create and lead LGBT steering committees in Ohio and Texas." Stern and a small group of LGBT volunteers are planning events in cities with large gay populations in both states -- not to raise money for Obama, said Stern, but "just to talk to LGBT voters about why to support Obama." ...Most political pundits say neither candidate can reach the necessary 2,025 delegate mark through the remaining primaries and caucuses. So much attention in the Democratic Party -- including that of the National Stonewall Democrats -- has shifted to superdelegates.

Noting that a recent exit poll in California and New York showed lesbian, gay, and bisexual voters were 4 percent and 7 percent of the electorate, respectively, he said he expects the numbers in Texas and Ohio to be "sizeable."

Those are remarkable numbers. IMHO, it reflects the tendency of those folks to move to those states.
