http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/04/floppy_dicks From HorsesAss... Speaking before a crowd of about a hundred Democrats at a fundraiser yesterday, U.S. Rep. Norm Dicks (WA-06) reportedly said that if Hillary Clinton wins “big” in today’s Pennsylvania primary, he believes the nominating contest will go all the way to the convention, but… if she does not win big—and given the current polling he has no expectation that she will—there would be no way the math could work for her, and he’d flip his endorsement to Barack Obama in order to help end the contest sooner rather than later. Maria? Patty? Ron?... Copyright 2008 Tue, 22 Apr 2008 09:51:53 -0800 Tue, 22 Apr 2008 11:59:35 -0800 http://www.movabletype.org/?v=3.34 http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss He's not alone. Almost all of the remaining undeclared superdelegates, and a good portion of the declared ones as well, are going to go for the popular vote and delegate leader soon. That's not going to be Clinton, even if she wins 70-30 in PA today.

Dicks did dwell on the race but he made not comment about switching to Obama.
