People might want to look at 2008 Clinton superdelegates.

The SDs may announce for Hillary early because of the Clinton smear (and worse) machine, but the whole point of SDs is that they are free to vote for someone even if they said they would vote for Hillary. A lot of them switched to Obama in 2008, and they’ll do it again to Hillary for the same reasons.

I’m sure Billary did a better job picking their SDs after the black ones jumped ship to Obama last time out. She’s got them locked down.

She’s already won the nomination. That side of the election is a joke obviously. She’s got 90% of the votes after losing two states!

Obama gave them an easy path out of Camp Hillary in 2008 because of his “moderate” persona and racial issues.

Bernie has neither of those going for him. The Dem Party establishment doesn’t see him as an acceptable, viable alternative to Hillary.

They WILL be open to jumping to Biden, if the opportunity presents itself. But Biden can only enter the race now if Hillary exits. Say under indictment or threat of indictment.
