SD Shuler To Follow Voters In His District (to Clinton)

By Big Tent Democrat

ADVERTISEMENTS

Rep. Heath Shuler (D- NC) is expected to follow his district in choosing the Dem Presidential candidate he will support:

Shuler, a freshman congressman, is expected to announce Monday that he will pledge his support to whichever Democratic candidate wins his district in Tuesday’s primary. . . . Given the demographics of Shuler’s district, Senator Hillary Clinton (D-NY) is predicted to win there on Tuesday.

It is a neat trick more superdelegates should use if they fear political repercussions for their decisions. Clearly, Shuler wants to be for Clinton but does not want to say it directly. Other ways could be used by uncommitted superdelegates. For example, if Shuler wanted to be for Obama, he could have said he would vote the way the state voted overall. Ultimately, I believe the overall popular vote leader should be selected by the super delegates. But there are many ways to finesse this for the SDs.
