I read a piece about the superdelegates a while back. I'm not sure if this is the same one, but basically it argues that the superdelegates will ultimately fall in line with whichever way the popular vote goes. I guess that's probably true if there is a clear winner in the popular vote. But if Sanders doesn't have a greater than 5% lead over Clinton in the popular vote, I could imagine the superdelegates propping Clinton up.
