Hillary's threat against Pelosi and DCCC seems to be backfiring on the Hill. From Jake Tapper at ABC:

 Quote:
ABC News' Political Director David Chalian reports that a Democratic operative unaffiliated with either campaign and familiar with the reaction to the letter among Members of Congress says, "Members of Congress - who are superdelegates - make up the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee" or DCCC from which the donors seemed to be threatening to withhold funds.

"Threatening the DCCC is equal to threatening the superdelegates Sen. Hillary Clinton's trying to court. The Clinton donor letter will just push undeclared superdelegates in Congress leaning toward Obama to endorse him sooner. It also reinforces the narrative that she'll destroy the party to win."


Whoops. There goes those superdelegates.



Mark Penn and his standard textbook scorched Earth negative campaign is the gift that just keeps giving. To Obama that is

The desperation is so self-destructive that she might even lose ground in Pennsylvania.

I speculate, I hope.
