to the Editor:
Ms. Ferraro's column misrepresents why I resent the superdelegates. It is not because they lead; It is because they take money. Most of them are elected officials. Most of them have re-election campaigns underway or on the horizon. It is therefore unremarkable that senator Obama, or senator Clinton, or both have given money to many of the superdelegates over the past few years. Until we have deep campaign finance reform, this is a problem. It creates at least the appearance of impropriety for anyone--having taken this money--to choose my candidate.
