Obama won the votes in Virginia over Hillary yesterday by an impressive margin and the voters of the Democratic Party delivered a win in a primary that was Hillary's to be had several months ago... But if it comes down to the Super Delegates in a close race at the time of the Democratic Party convention, the Clinton-machine might just have a surprise for Obama and his voters...
"Virginia superdelegates, like their counterparts in other states, are split over whether their votes at the Democratic convention this summer should be for the winner of state primaries or their personal choice".
"Delegate Jennifer L. McClellan, Richmond Democrat, said yesterday she will vote for Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton regardless of primary outcomes".
There was an interesting ARTICLE about this yesterday that describes "what just might happen" when it comes to that big party in a couple of months...
"I will cast my vote at the convention for her unless she withdraws from the race because I still believe her to be the best candidate for the job," she said. "I imagine those superdelegates who have committed to Senator [Barack] Obama feel the same way."
Democratic Virginia Governor Tim Kaine told ABC's "This Week" program on Sunday that it probably would not come down to the Super Delegates at convention time.
"However, Mr. Kaine said the previous night, at the annual Jefferson-Jackson Dinner, in Richmond, he had "declared his allegiance and am not changing."
Turns out Democratic Virginia Governor Kaine is Mr. Obama's national co-chairman and has "declared his allegiance"
Might just come down to a little bit of negotiations at the Democratic Convention after all... No matter what the voters said...

It says in the article that Kaine said: "that the superdelegates will support "the people's choice."
If kaine is a superdelegate also who will he support if it comes to the superdelegates? The peoples choice?
It will be interesting to see what the Super Delegates, and ones like Kaine, will do if it comes down to that. Wash Times said the next day that the Super Delegates will probably be the only way Clinton can win after Texas if she loses there.
What will The Democrats do if they take a "Voters" win away from Obama to give it to Clinton???
