Report: Superdelegates wary of Clinton

U.S. presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton, after years of building Democratic Party relationships, has had some trouble wooing superdelegates, analysts said. The New York Times reported Sunday that part of the reason is that politicians want to follow the will of their constituents in states where Clinton has lost to rival Barack Obama. Report: Superdelegates wary of Clinton Elected officials who voiced their support for Clinton before she lost their state are rethinking their allegiances, the newspaper said. There are some 700 superdelegates, party leaders and elected officials, who will help determine the party's presidential nominee -- and some of them have switched allegiances, the report said. Nancy Larson, a Democratic National Committee member from Minnesota, originally backed Clinton but recently decided to pledge her support to Obama, the newspaper said. Other party heavyweights have not endorsed Clinton amid complaints that she and former President Bill Clinton have taken their loyalty for granted. "There is a lot of Clinton fatigue in the party and in the country today, and many people are reacting to that," said former Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle of South Dakota, who is backing Obama.
