Ben Smith over at Politico.com posts that a new superdelegate is coming out for Hillary Clinton, according to sources.
Jaime Gonzalez, Jr., is a DNC loyalist and superdelegate for Texas.
Discounting the Kirk announcement today because it was already part of Obama's total, today could well end Hillary +1, Obama 0. However, some news outlets (like NBC News) did not have Kirk as a superdelegate commitment, so for them this is a new endorsement.
I'm sure Obama could produce some other new superdelegates, but the desire to amplify the Andrew defection and the fact that it's a slow news period on Friday afternoon/evening probably means no more superdelegate announcements tonight.
