Two More Superdelegates Announce for Obama

Ed Espinoza, the previously anonymous author of the Mr. Super website, and previously undeclared DNC superdelegate from California, has announced that he will endorse Senator Obama today.

John Gage, a DNC superdelegate and also the President of the American Federation of Government Employees, has also endorsed Senator Obama and pledged his union's support for the candidate.

This makes it 4-0 for Obama over Clinton today. Clinton did pick up a new superdelegate but lost one to Obama.

Obama now stands just 7.5 superdelegates behind Clinton in this race. Clinton led by nearly 100 superdelegates over Obama on Super Tuesday but since then has witnessed a steady erosion of that lead.
