That's right!...Of Obama is ahead before the superdelegates are counted, there's a possiblity he will lose the nomination based on the votes from Hillary's own husband and members of her own staff...

Missing the point...
Whether the percentage of them making a difference is 99% or .001%, the fact that they have ANY ability to make a difference should be of great concern to the democratic process...
Just the fact that the system is set up which includes a way for a candidates's husband and campaign staff members to vote as delegates instead of the average voter should be quite disturbing...
