2. So Obama’s been on the defensive for six weeks now, but he’s still picking up superdelegates at a faster clip than Hillary. Current delegate totals: 1738 - 1599, with 2025 needed to win the nomination. Hillary’s superdelegate lead has dwindled to 17, 266 to 249. The most notable superdelegate “get” of the week: Hillary supporter and influential Indiana voter switches sides to Obama, says this thing has gone on too long.

Remaining schedule for the Democratic nomination:

May 3 - Guam caucuses
May 6 - Indiana, North Carolina
May 13 - West Virginia
May 20 - Kentucky, Oregon
June 1 - Puerto Rico
June 3 - Montana, South Dakota

In the latest polling, Obama is up by 7 points in North Carolina, Hillary is up by 6 in Indiana.

3. This past week, the candidates sparred over a summer break on the gas tax. McCain and Hillary are for the break, Obama is not. Here’s why you should care.
