Myth #2 (cont.) - Republicans Do Have Supers

Josh_marshall Josh Marshall wrote in his May 4th article that Republicans don't have Superdelegates.  This is something that people overlook quite a bit, as even the Republicans try to hide the fact that they have Superdelegates.

I noted this in Myth #2 back in March, and shortly after that posting Abbi Tatton at CNN also gave a report about Republicans having a similar system.

The "unpledged RNC members" as noted in this running delegate tally at CNN, are Superdelegates.  They go by a different name, but they still have the right to pledge their vote however they please which demonstrates that, yes, Republicans do in fact have Superdelegates!

On a related note: I'll give Marshall credit for introducing me to French Market Coffee, which he blogged about shortly after Hurricane Katrina posed a threat to the available supply.
