It’s a good day for Obama and the superdelegate race as two influential and one highly sought after SD’s fell into the Obama camp. Hillary nabbed longtime supporter Kathleen Kennedy Townsend as an official superdelegate in party elections, but it lacks the punch of Obama’s gets.

The three names for Obama are: South Carolina Education Superintendent Inez Tenenbaum, ex-Maryland Gov. Parris Glendening and New Mexico State Democratic Party Chair Brian Colon.

While the two supporters from SC had been in Barack’s camp for some time and were simply voted in as official super’s, Colon was a hot prospect for both candidates. Hillary won the tight New Mexico primary back on Super Tuesday, but Obama’s lobbying has apparently won him over.

Despite the Rev. Wright explosion, you’re seeing plenty of undecided SD’s taking stock and breaking for Obama regardless. Not even the biggest controversy of the ‘08 campaign cycle (do far) can boost Hillary. Will the voters of Indiana and North Carolina step up?
