We need to do something about these 2 Super Delegates.

Christopher Stampolis of Santa Clara, a superdelegate who endorsed Clinton after the Iowa caucuses, said that he remained in the New York senator's camp but that his commitment expired with the end of the primaries.

"When it's done, all of us, whether we're committed or not, we're going to take a look" at the final eight contests, said Stampolis, who until recently worked in external relations for a Bay Area environmental firm. "Our job is to represent the constituents who trusted us to win the White House."

Garry Shay, a Los Angeles attorney, said that if Clinton remained about 150 pledged delegates behind Obama, the current estimated margin, he would have to "reassess the entirety of the situation."

"It doesn't mandate me switching," he said, "but it does mandate me reconsidering."

Stampolis and Shay were among the superdelegates on the keynote panel for the annual gathering of leaders of California's Democratic clubs, which focus on grass-roots organizing.

The superdelegates said they were being lobbied by supporters of Clinton and Obama. "I must have 100 letters from Clinton people asking me to stay with her, and about 10 Obama ones telling me I have to change immediately," said Alice Huffman, president of the California State Conference of the National Assn. for the Advancement of Colored People.

Klara send them the petition, show how many supporters we have! Let me know what your plans of attack are.
