Small-town Superdelegate endorses ...

OBAMA! Of course :) Fancy that, endorsing at 'elitist', and from a town of only 1,200. Tsk! Tsk!


Superdelegate goes for Obama

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — One of Minnesota's last uncommitted Democratic
superdelegates is backing Barack Obama, the Obama campaign announced
Sunday.

Nancy Larson, of Dassel, a Democratic National Committee
member, told The Associated Press she decided to support Obama because
his campaign will bring new people into the political process, and she
believes he has the best chance of winning in November.

"It's looking more and more that the one person who can do it is Barack Obama," Larson said.

But
Larson said the choice wasn't easy. As one of the last two uncommitted
superdelegates in Minnesota, Larson had been lobbied heavily by Obama's
and Hillary Clinton's campaigns. She said she spent countless hours
speaking with the campaigns and others about her choice.

Larson joins eight other Minnesota superdelegates who are supporting Obama. Three are backing Clinton.

Larson's announcement leaves Rep. Collin Peterson as the only uncommitted superdelegate from the state.
