Is there a list of Iowa superdelegates and who they support

[rurallib]

I am so sick of Hillary and her seeming intent to destroy the party if she doesn't get her way. Now she declares she she will have a credentials fight on the floor over Florida and Michigan.

Somehow I would like to at least let our delegation that is not already committed know that this has gone far enough. Maybe if enough people call or email them they will get the message?

6. Was the email from Harkin or Obama?

I get email from both and got one from Harkin and it didn't say anything about that.

11. That may just be smart politics there.

Obama does Harkin a favor, and Harkin could return it as a superdelegate...

Machachek is a party insider from CR I think. Not sure on that one.

8. Thank you very much

I almost went back and deleted this message, but Hillary needs to remember McCain is the opposition we want to scorch.
Visited a friend today who had co-chaired Hillary's campaign in our county. I tried to avoid the subject but she brought it up with a "How do you see what is going on?" I mumbled something non-committal like "well it is getting pretty vicious and I think we are helping McCain."
She sort of looked off and spoke in incomplete sentences and said "I talked to her, I looked her in the eyes when she was here ---- something's not right ------ I trusted her ---."
I moved to change the subject.
I am not trying to trash Hillary although it may seem like it. McCain is the SOB we need to go after and we need to come at him as a strong and united party that backs up our nominee.

16. Boswell was given a bunch of money after the caucuses...

by Obama...I'm trusting he'll stay bought and flip for Obama soon...he doesn't want to upset any voter with the tough primary he is in against Fallon. It's inevitable, just all in the timing for him.
