Good ideas,  sure, but ideas without any actual leadership. It was as if he&#8217;d just realized  that the Democratic primary was a runaway train.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->One SD has taken Dean&#8217;s  call to commit &#8212; twice. Hillary Clinton woke up to some bad news today.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><a href=\"http:\/\/politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com\/2008\/05\/01\/major-clinton-backer-switches-to-obama\/\" target=\"_BLANK\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CNN<\/a>:<\/p>\n<p>The Obama campaign announced Thursday that former  Democratic National Committee Chairman Joe Andrew &#8212; who was appointed to that  post in 1999 by then-President Clinton &#8212; is withdrawing his endorsement of  Hillary Clinton, and backing Barack Obama instead.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Many  will ask, why now? Why, with several primaries still remaining, with Senator  Clinton just winning Pennsylvania, with my friend Evan Bayh working hard to make  sure Senator Clinton wins Indiana, why switch now? Why call for super delegates  to come together now to constructively pick a president?&#8221; said Andrew in a  letter released Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The simple answer is that while the timing is  hard for me personally, it is best for America. We simply cannot wait any  longer, nor can we let this race fall any lower and still hope to win in  November. June or July may be too late. The time to act is  now.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The timing suggests that Andrew saw how long the  primary would have to go on for Hillary to win and that he decided his original  choice had become too expensive.<span class=\"fullpost\"> The dem primary is  threatening to split the party, with some voters so embittered that they&#8217;re  telling pollsters <a href=\"http:\/\/griperblade.blogspot.com\/2008\/04\/sour-grapes-ticket.html\" target=\"_BLANK\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">they won&#8217;t vote for the nominee if it&#8217;s the candidate they&#8217;re not  supporting<\/a>. It&#8217;s a bad choice, a foolish choice, and a choice that far too  many have already decided to make in November. Nothing would make Bush, McCain,  and the rest of the GOP happier than to see a large group of Democratic voters  refuse to vote for Clinton or Obama.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>If Andrews&#8217; move reflects an  undercurrent in the Democratic party, it may be bad news for Clinton. Sen.  Claire McCaskill, an Obama-backer, suggested to Politico that congressional SDs are leaning Obama.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&ldquo;The majority of superdelegates I&rsquo;ve talked to are committed, but it  is a matter of timing,&rdquo; said Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.). &ldquo;They&rsquo;re just  preferring to make their decision public after the primaries are over. &#8230; They  would like someone else to act for them before they talk about it in the cold  light of day.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Obama currently holds an 18-13 lead among committed  superdelegates in the Senate, while Clinton holds a 77-74 lead in the House.  Asked which way the committed-but-unannounced superdelegates are leaning,  McCaskill &mdash; who has endorsed Obama &mdash; said: &ldquo;James Brown would say, &lsquo;I Feel  Good.&rsquo;&rdquo;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The Clinton campaign disputes this, as you&#8217;d expect  they would, but the way superdelegates have been breaking has favored Obama.  While Clinton still leads in SD endorsements, Obama&#8217;s been picking up  endorsements at a faster pace &#8212; many of Clinton&#8217;s SD were there right out of  the gate, when it looked like the primary would be a Clinton  coronation.<\/p>\n<p>Yesterday, CNN reported, &#8220;Sen. Barack Obama, hoping to put the  controversy over his former pastor behind him, is getting some good news: five  more superdelegates in the past 24 hours,&#8221; while &#8220;Sen. Hillary Clinton picked up  four superdelegates within the same time period.&#8221; Anderson&#8217;s defection makes  that six new for Obama, four new for Clinton.<\/p>\n<p>What should have  Clinton-backers worried is that 18-13 score in Senate dems. Remember, Hillary&#8217;s  the one with &#8220;experience&#8221; &#8212; meaning she&#8217;s been in the Senate longer.  Apparently, she hasn&#8217;t made a lot of friends among her Senate colleagues. And  that score represents a little short of half the dem SDs in the Senate. If that  sample is representative, Hillary&#8217;s fellow senators will choose Obama. And her  77-74 lead in the House is anemic.<\/p>\n<p>For their part, the Republican party  has chosen <em>their<\/em> dem nominee. Hoping to get a jump on the general  election, the GOP is targeting who they see as the obvious winner.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Raw Story:<\/p>\n<p>The Republicans have decided that Hillary  Clinton&#8217;s campaign is essentially dead, and all indications are that they&#8217;re  gearing up for a general election campaign against Barack  Obama.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Clinton, it seems, has been erased from the picture,  Soviet-style,&#8221; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/stories\/0408\/9964.html\" target=\"_BLANK\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Politico&#8217;s Jonathan Martin<\/a> reports  Tuesday.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Martin points to obvious signs that McCain has  begun running against Obama. &#8220;On ABC&rsquo;s &#8216;This Week&#8217; last Sunday, he raised,  unprompted, the Democrat&rsquo;s views on capital gains taxes and his ties to a member  of the radical Weather Underground group,&#8221; he wrote. &#8220;In a conference call with  conservative bloggers Friday, McCain responded to a question about words of  support a Hamas political adviser had bestowed on Obama by saying it&rsquo;s &#8216;very  clear who Hamas wants to be the next president of the United States.&#8217; He then  noted leftist Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega&rsquo;s support for Obama, as  well.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The McCain campaign&#8217;s assessment of Clinton&#8217;s chances seems to be  &#8220;Hillary who?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Once again, I find myself writing a &#8220;Hillary&#8217;s undead  campaign&#8221; post. Unfortunately, she seems committed to running not only her own  campaign into the grave, but Obama&#8217;s as well. When even Baghdad John accepts  reality, it&#8217;s time to give it up.<\/p>\n<p>Like it or not, this primary will now  be decided by the superdelegates. At this point, neither candidate can win  enough delegates to take the nomination from primary elections alone &#8212; there  aren&#8217;t enough left. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.npr.org\/templates\/story\/story.php?storyId=87928814\" target=\"_BLANK\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">This was true since at least March<\/a> and every election since  then has been a beauty contest. They&#8217;ve been showing off for  superdelegates.<\/p>\n<p>And those superdelegates seem to be going for Obama, the  GOP is predicting Obama, McCain is <em>running<\/em> against Obama. What Barack  Obama needs to do now is &#8220;run back&#8221; at McCain. Hillary Clinton, like it or not,  is a distraction. She&#8217;s not getting the nomination and, in her pointless quest  to secure the impossible, is doing McCain&#8217;s work for him. Despite Clinton&#8217;s wins  in what she calls the &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/griperblade.blogspot.com\/2008\/04\/important-states-of-america.html\" target=\"_BLANK\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">important states<\/a>,&#8221; SDs are breaking for Obama. Winning these  beauty contests isn&#8217;t doing the job.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s time to end this farce and have  all the superdelegates commit &#8212; as Howard Dean asked them to. If the Republican  party knows who the Democratic nominee is going to be, shouldn&#8217;t Democrats?<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Terry Canaan is a former political fundraiser living and writing in  Wisconsin.
