Are More Oklahoma Superdelegates About To Break For Obama?

There's gossip in Democrat circles today that one (and perhaps two) more of Oklahoma's superdelegates is about to declare support for Barack Obama. Obama now has four of the state's 10 superdelegates in his pocket, Hillary Clinton one.

Allen said he believes that both Obama and Senator Hillary Clinton are “supremely qualified to be president.”

“I have been friends for a very long time with former President Clinton and Senator Clinton. I respect their service to our nation. Hillary Clinton has run a vigorous campaign and has attracted a passionate following in Maine and around the country. She loves this country and is a true leader. For her service, I am grateful,” he said.

“Most of the primary voters across the nation have now spoken. It is time to bring a graceful end to the primary campaign. We now need to unify the Democratic Party and focus on electing Senator Obama and a working majority in the United States Senate. That is how we can change the direction of the country."
