Read comments (1)The decision adds more momentum for Obama in an important swing state likely to be hard fought in November.
Obama leads Hillary Rodham Clinton nationally in the tally of superdelegates -- elected officials and party leaders who are not bound by primary or caucus results.
Obama has plenty to be encouraged about as he surveys the political landscape in Iowa. His campaign got a major boost in January with his solid win in Iowa's leadoff precinct caucuses, which propelled him to front-runner status and put a significant dent in Clinton's hopes.
Now he has endorsements from seven of Iowa's 11 superdelegates, compared to Clinton's three. Sen. Tom Harkin is Iowa's only uncommitted superdelegate.
Entering the race, Clinton was considered by many the presumptive nominee, but her third-place showing in the leadoff caucuses hurt her chances. Though she recovered with a New Hampshire win, Obama went on a winning streak that's given him a solid lead in delegates.
Obama said that if primaries on Tuesday turn out as the polls suggest, he will clinch a majority of the delegates selected in primaries and caucuses.
You Iowa people sure do like the Ossama. Evidently you don't care about his past. If he is the next president-two years from how I want one of you Obama lovers to write and list all the things that he has done that he said he would do during his campaign speechs. I guarantee you it will be a short list. You don't want the illegals in your state-then why vote for Obama-he loves all the black people--weather they are legal or illegal.
