Paul G. Kirk, superdelegate from MA, declares support for Obama
http://www.boston.com/news/politics/politicalintelligence/2008/05/massachusetts_s_1.html

Paul G. Kirk, a Democratic superdelegate from Massachusetts, officially declared his support for Barack Obama today.

Kirk is the second former Democratic National Committee chairman in two days to back Obama, following Joe Andrew of Indiana. And his endorsement narrows Hillary Clinton's lead among superdelegates to fewer than 20. While Obama had the support of Senators John F. Kerry and Edward M. Kennedy and Governor Deval Patrick, Clinton won the Massachusetts primary in February.

3. It is somewhat significant that these former DNC Chairs are coming out for Obama
I think DNC members as a whole will be favoring Obama more than Clinton.

5. But but but....
What happened to the state's popular vote? What about the "will of the people"?

Ideals are so darned flexible when the shoe's on the other foot...
