PLEDGED DELEGATES, TOO?


This story by Roger Simon in today’s Politico has already generated a lot of buzz , sourcing to a high-placed Clinton campaign source the notion that the Clinton team will go after pledged delegates won by Barack Obama, if necessary.

Clinton spokesman Phil Singer, via internet director Peter Daou, flatly denied it, saying: "We have not, are not and will not pursue the pledged delegates of Barack Obama. It's now time for the Obama campaign to be clear about their intentions."

--Tom Schaller

Sounds like interesting jujitsu on the Clinton campaign's part.

If "jujitsu" is a fancy word meaning "screw-up", then yes.

It's kind of sad that this has the ring of truth about it coming from her campaign, even if it has no basis in reality. I don't know if it's because the many trial-balloons floated by Bush and the Republicans these last years or if the Clinton camp has just completely spent their credibility.
