Clinton--this is something totally different

[kjoe]

is there something wrong with buying a superdelegate vote?

Actually, I am not sure there is. Legally.

It is one way to inspire young voters.

I have been harsh regarding the Clintons. If the contest were not virtually over---I think this might be a big deal. Maybe the story is wrong---and I do not hold Hillary responsible, but wow..........

Saban and the YDA

HuffPo has quite a story on a Clinton donor and the Young Democrats of America.
They don't have any named sources, and the Young Democrats officials haven't been returning Avi's calls, but if you know more, let us know.

One of Sen. Hillary Clinton's top financial supporters offered $1 million to the Young Democrats of America during a phone conversation in which he also pressed for the organization's two uncommitted superdelegates to endorse the New York Democrat, a high-ranking official with YDA told The Huffington Post.
Haim Saban, the billionaire entertainment magnate and longtime Clinton supporter, denied the allegation. But four independent sources said that just before the North Carolina and Indiana primaries, Saban called YDA President David Hardt and offered what was perceived as a lucrative proposal: $1 million would be made available for the group if Hardt and the organization's other uncommitted superdelegate backed Clinton.
