Obama drops in on House superdelegates
Published: May 8, 2008 at 2:44 PM
Obama, D-Ill., entered the chamber just as members were beginning a series of votes, The Hill reported.
"I wanted to see what's going on over here," Obama told reporters. "I hear there's a lot of action on this side."
Obama spoke to uncommitted superdelegates -- elected officials and party leaders not bound by a primary or caucus results -- as well as supporters of rival Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y. Observers said he also spoke to House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, D-Md., who has remained neutral.
While Clinton was not on the House floor, some of her surrogates were, the Washington publication said.
