Pelosi on Question of Superdelegates

Nancy Pelosi knows it will be a very bad thing if superdelegates tip the nomination in favor of Clinton, and she's not mincing her words.

"I said it would be harmful to the Democratic Party and our prospects in November if the perception is that the superdelegates overturned the votes of the people, and I believe that," Pelosi says. "And I said it when Sen. Clinton was ahead and now the perception is that Sen. Obama is ahead."

She makes it pretty clear where she stands on the Clinton campaign's machinations too :

In a recent letter, major Democratic donors and Clinton supporters pressured Pelosi to change her position that the superdelegates should back the candidate with the most delegates.

"I said this when Sen. Clinton was ahead, too," Pelosi says. "I don't remember receiving a letter from them at that time," Pelosi says. "But let me be as clear as I can be: That letter is unimportant."
