While we're waiting - A new superdelegate for Obama

Tue May 06, 2008 at 03:49:01 PM PDT

While we're all waiting for results, it's never too early for a little good news.

Jeanette Council (NC) has endorsed Obama for President.

"I would have no problem voting for either of the two," she said. "But of the two, I think Barack Obama is the better candidate."

She indicated that she had withheld her choice until North Carolina had a chance to vote.  

She said she was drawn to Obama’s ability to inspire people, especially those who had never voted before and added:

"It’s life-changing to witness it happen," she said. "I know that we’ve got to do more than just talk about solutions. We’ve got to get people to the point where they work together and they are involved and are inspired enough to come up with solutions."

Right now, Obama is only trailing Clinton by 14.5 superdelegates.  I am hoping that a strong showing tonight will unleash a flood of support.
