How to influence the superdelegates 

Barack Obama's website has a form where you can send a note to a superdelegate. The email letter explaining it doesn't explicitly say each message will be sent to the superdelegates representing the sender, but it looks like that's how it must work.

I never figure things like online petitions or any kind of organized electronic letterwriting mean much to elected officials because it's made too easy.

Both Barack and Hillary have positions regarding the superdelegates that I don't much like. Hillary's push to seat the Michigan delegation is right out of the question, outrageous, but Barack's done one thing and said another I don't agree with either.

I didn't like hearing that Obama's campaign had contributed so much money to the superdelegates who have their own campaign funds. Hillary did it too, but not so much money; she doesn't have as much.

Also I don't agree with the position that supers should necessarily reflect the vote of the people they represent. The system was put in place so we crazy Dems wouldn't get all carried away like we did with George McGovern in 1972.

I voted and volunteered for McGovern but I know we were deluded and he ended up winning one state in the general election. It isn't like that this year. We're likely to take the White House this time, so the party doesn't need to save us from ourselves. The supers should be able to vote the way they see fit, but should have the good sense to see that their purpose isn't and never was to support the oldest-time party regular in a year when the will of the people does have its collective head on straight.

Found it on this Googlepages page where they have my inauguration countdown widget inexpertly displayed ;-) But it's getting a lot of flow, more than when the widget appeared on an AOL news page.
