I don't think Obama would reach 2025 by May 31. Am going to be bolder than that and say he is going to be very close to Clinton numbers of 2210 before May 31. He did more than 30 super in the past week and the ball keep rolling. Yesterday just after her "big" W.V win he got five and that not counting John Edwards who managed to steal Clinton media attention at a crucial moment. I think it fair to say that things would accelerate instead of slowing down. The remaining supers would not want to be sitting on the sideline they would want their endorsement to matter.
After all we are dealing with politicians and none of them would want to side with Obama after he clinched the nomination. They would want to be on board before that happen. What could tip Obama closer to the 2210 numbers are major increase in Clinton super delegates defecting to his side. We would see a major influx of Clinton supers leaving her side for Obama that a given has soon has their no reason for them to stay by her side. Politician are the same everywhere they don't want to be on the loosing side. My call is that they would stay until after Kentucky more out of respect for Clinton than anything else but I see them making the jump after Kentucky but before May 31.
