If New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer resigns, Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Hillary Clinton will be down one superdelegate.

The scandal-tainted governor and his lieutenant governor, David Paterson, who is a Democratic National Committee member, are among the roughly 800 superdelegates who will also cast ballots at the August nominating convention. Both support Sen. Clinton. The DNC confirmed yesterday that New York would lose Mr. Spitzer's superdelegate slot if he resigns.

Why am I not surprized about this?? If anyone had Spitz as a SD, it would have to be Her Thighness...

So its that going to be one more vote replaced for Obama-mania if he resigns and they have to replace his vote with some one else? Or is it just an empty slot that won't be filled at election time...
