Pressure Building on Lone Wisc Clinton-declared Superdelegate Officeholder

Update: John Nichols: A Baldwin shift to Obama could send crucial message
So, why is Wisconsin's most progressive elected official and superdelegate still declared, alone among elected state officeholders, for Hillary Clinton?
Good question for Rep. Tammy Baldwin (D-Madison).
What does it take from Clinton for Baldwin to jump ship?
Hillary playing on homophobia like Hillary does in North Carolina? [See Andrew Sullivan - She's on O'Reilly and her surrogate is accusing her opponent of being a 'pansy'. Classy - but vintage Clinton. Never miss an opportunity to exploit homophobia. Remember DOMA? Remember doubling the discharges from the military? Remember inaction on AIDS? Remember the Clintons' using anti-gay marriage ads in the South in 1996? And yet the gays keep coming back for more. I don't understand why. I really don't. See also DavidKC at DailyKos.]
Hillary playing on fear and race like she has done for months now?
I wish Tammy would cut the shit.
What do you owe Clinton? Better yet, what do you owe your constituents?
Don't get Washingtonized on us. I'm with Sullivan, I really don't understand why.

Baldwin support for Hillary
Hey Mal,
Ask Tammy's staffers to comment on the latest attempt to supress black voters in South Carolina just before their primary, and the possible connections this 501 group has to the Clinton campaign.
This group operated here in Wisconsin just before our February primary.
The board of directors for this group is stocked with ties to the Clintons.
Ask Tammy what she thinks of this fresh development, and read the comments in the article to learn why the group's explanation is bogus.

Baldwin support for HRC
Hey Malcontends,
Ask Tammy about today's fresh developments surrounding black voter supression in S.C just before their election next Tuesday. And inform her about the close ties this 501 group has to the Clinton campaign. And ask what she knows about the work this group did in Wisconsin this past February along the same lines.

Good questions
Why the hell is Tammy Baldwin supporting a retrograde, divisive dirty player whose only accomplishment the last two monthes is driving down Obama's numbers on values vis a vis McCain (see http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/24390690/page/2/).
Ask Tammy Baldwin:
