Obama's abuse of Clinton delegates

The Natchez Blog, the official Mississippi blog of the Democratic National Convention, tells the sordid tale of the Obama Campaign's corralling of Clinton delegates. They must not speak to the press before getting clearance from the Obama Campaign. This includes their hometown newspaper. They speak of Clinton delegates in the past tense as if they have already joined Obama. The best is Obama's Big Brother questionnaire. As Casey Ann says on her blog:

The message then goes on to tell them to fill out a Delegate survey at the Obama campaign website. Delegates have already filled out a survey for the Democratic National Committee and the Mississippi Democratic Party, but this is a different one. It's a pretty intrusive survey, asking what you do for a living, what your ethnicity is, how old you are, what union you belong to, whether you're gay, and what your religion is. What business does the Obama campaign have asking all this information about a Clinton delegate?
