A superdelegate wants to know: What do you think about the presidential nominating system?

Maine’s Democratic National Committeeman Sam Spencer is still on the fence regarding his superdelegate status, and he wants to hear from Maine on the issue.

“As an uncommitted 'superdelegate,' my life has been turned upside down with calls from the candidates, their surrogates, and Maine Democrats urging me in every possible direction. For a number of reasons, I have decided to stay uncommitted thus far,” Spencer writes on his Web site.

He has started an open discussion on SamSpencer.org for Democrats. He wants input on the following topics:

-What they think about the presidential nominating and superdelegate systems

-How can Democrats unite the party?

-What should the DNC do about Michigan and Florida?

-Should Iowa and New Hampshire continue to be first on the primary calendar?

The blog went live this morning, and had 60 comments at 4:30 p.m.
