California DNC Member and superdelegate Ed Espinoza endorsed Barack Obama today. This according to the Obama HQ Blog

Who he is:

MrSuper.org is a website which was created in March to debunk myths, offer insight and answer questions about the 2008 Democratic nomination process for President. The author, who has been posting under the pseudonym "Mr. Super" will announce his identity today.

The site was created by Edward Espinoza, an undeclared Superdelegate and elected DNC Member from California and a former Field Director to 2008 Presidential Candidate Bill Richardson.

The site gained the immediate attention of several political media outlets covering the web, being included in a story by Abbi Tatton on CNN, as well as serving as the subject of magazine articles published in The Nation and The American Prospect. It was recently mentioned in a San Jose Mercury News article, and the site has also been featured on other blogs including Democratic Convention Watch, TAPPED - the blog of the American Prospect, and has received mentions on DailyKos, Ben Smith's blog at Politico.com and a number of other political blogs. All featured stories are listed on a page within the blog under a link labeled "In The News."

So, why author the site anonymously? "I stand by everything I've written on the site - but I didn't want the site to be about me, I wanted it to be about the topic of Superdelegates," said Espinoza. "I put this together under the premise that it would be a public service and no personal gain to be made - there would be no advertising to earn money from and no name recognition for the author."
