He also got two more .5 superdelegates - link here.

He also recieved two endorsements via youtube from Young Democrat Chairs Awais Khaleel (WI) and Lauren Wolfe (MI) endorsed Obama last night. so +1 more (Lauren being from MI)

Speaking of insurmountable leads, when do the April fund raising numbers come out?

I actually considered endorsing Obama last night, thinking, well, compared to most politicians he's not that bad, probably not dumb, and maybe even up to the job, despite a lack of any clear evidence to prove it. But then I thought, the three presidents in modern (post 1900) history with the least experience, by far, are W, Obama (assuming he were elected) and JFK. And W and JFK are actually among the worst, along with Harding.

W and JFK: loutish rich kids who went to Ivy institutions based on family money and social class. Undistinguished academic careers.
Obama: pompous middle-class kid who goes to Ivy institutions based on checking the "AA" box. Undistinguished academic career.

W: "businessman" living off sweetheart deals from people wanting a connection to Sr.
JFK: "writer" of Pulitzer winning book, written by someone else.
Obama: "law professor" who never published a single scholarly article, usually a requisite to teach law.

W: governor for a few years
JFK: Senator for a term
Obama: Senator or a few years

Performance:
W: well, pretty obvious
JFK: because he got assasinated, people get all weepy over Kennedy, but he was in fact not at all that good a president.
Obama: well, as Borat says, if you want, you can let a monkey fly a plane, but watch out, you don't know what's gonna happen!

So you have guys who never actually accomplished anything on their own, who are privileged by one reason or another, whose purported achievements are actually make-believe, and then they have the serious responsibilities of the presidency to handle.

Sorry, Obama's not proven and definitely not ready.

"Undistinguished academic career." Right. Because to get on Harvard Law Review in the first place, you only have to finish your first year in about the top 10% of the class (whether in terms of grades or your writing). And being in the top 10% or so at Harvard is a cake-walk, obviously.

I see that, after Hillary's big 'win' in WV, her Intrade number actually dropped from yesterday's 9.0% to today's 8.3%.

Because Obama has what is essentially an insurmountable delegate lead

Thank you for being a part of the reality-based community.

"A quick note on super-del policy here: Because Obama has what is essentially an insurmountable delegate lead, we won't be doing a post on every single super-del endorsement unless there's something remarkable about it. Instead, we'll do one or two daily posts wrapping up the day's super-del action."

How convenient. There is no excuse for you trying to gloss over each super delegate endorsement. Delegates is the name of the game, and each one has a different profile and regional story to tell. There is nothing more important, at this stage, to report on TPM than the individual stories of Super Delegates as they make their decisions.

I much prefer to hear what such super delegates have to say, than the "boiler plate" propaganda coming from spin doctors.

There is no excuse for TPM trying to diminish the coverage of each super delegate that announces an endorsement.

McCain assumes that he will be running his campaign against Obama's experience and lack of judgement . . . He said so on FAUX last night. Even Senator Wackadoo gets it.

What's up HRC? Just cuz her second 'landslide' state win held Obama to getting only FOUR endorsements before breakfast . .
.

We will be hearing that Hillary Clinton is winning the DEM nomination for 2008 three decades after Obama finishes up his second term as President.
