The Obama campaign begins to make their electability case

The Obama campaign begins to make their electability case.

Bringing new voters to the polls "is going to be a very big part of how we win," said Obama's deputy campaign manager, Steve Hildebrand, in an interview. "Barack's appeal to independent voters is also going to be key."

If I'm a superdelegate who is facing reelection, am I going to be more favorable to the campaign that's telling me they'll bring huge numbers of new Democratic voters to me, or to the campaign that is secretly whispering fear in the face of the GOP?

That's the key difference in this whole thing.

(This also has the nice effect of "looking past Clinton.")
