Also... (none / 0)

I think it's tricky to rank female superdelegates in terms of the media attention their endorsements would attract.  If they endorse Obama, then they'll get significantly more media than if they endorse Clinton.  If five or more female superdelegates endorse Obama as a group, they will dominate the news.  So while I overall agree with your rankings, I really don't think female superdelegates can be accurately ranked in this system.  Too many variables.

Agreed.  Just like if Jim Clyburn were to endorse Clinton.

Yeah, there's a number of situations like that.  For example, NY supers that endorse Hillary - meaningless.  But NY supers that endorse Obama - huge.    Same in reverse for Illinois.
