    Well, I guess they could do as my niece from California is doing. She called me yesterday asking how she could recant her primary vote (bless her heart, she's only 19 and thought she could do that), and was furious that she had been taken in by and voted for Obama. She is writing to the super delegates from her state to express her desire that they commit to Hillary Clinton and she told me she is going to contact the Hillary Clinton campaign to offer her help in PA by making phone calls.

    Most of the superdelegates are also elected officials. Many of them will be running for re-election this fall.

    Simply organize and write them all and tell them that if Obama goes into the Convention with the most pledged delegates and does NOT come out as the nominee, you will vote against ALL superdelegates. Tell them you will do this no matter which way the delegate in question voted.

    Basically, make sure they all know, if Hillary wins, YOU LOSE.

    That should do it.

    We can't do anything - super delegates are being bought by the highest bidder

    Threaten the superdelegates. It's worked for Obama's side.

    Nothing at all. You want to creat a backlash against Obama but I'm sorry, it just wont work. Hillary has said things that are far worse than what Obamas pastor has said and I don't see you mentioning that. What about the super delegate that has been disgraced in a prostitution scandal that I'm sure includes Bill Clinton. Obama all the way and his pastor too!!!

    Contact your senators & congress people. They are the ones supposedly doing what you ask.
