Our readings today are selected verses from the Obama Scriptures.

From the AP Standard Version of the Scriptures:

"If Senator Obama is the nominee, he will aggressively pursue an agreement with the Republican nominee to preserve a publicly financed general election."

thus speaketh his disciple Bill Burton on the first day of March in the year of Our Lord 2007.

From St. Barack of Obama's written Sermon to the Midwest Democracy Network:

 “If I am the Democratic nominee, I will aggressively pursue an agreement with the Republican nominee to preserve a publicly financed general election.”

certified by St. Barack's own hand on the twenty-seventh day of November in the year of Our Lord 2007

From the Gnostic Gospels, an Account of the Third Non-Coming of the Campaign Finance Pledge:

"It was something that we pursued with the FEC and it was an option that we wanted on the table and is on the table."

Asked if the campaign's earlier position amounted to a pledge, Burton said: "No, there is no pledge."

as written by a chronicler in The Financial Times on the fifteenth day of February in the year of Our Lord 2008

And now turn with me in your Scriptures to the Gospel of the Super Delegates.

From the Book of the Alphabet Network:

as reported by its servant Jake Tapper

(And the Lord Obama sayeth, sayeth the Lord)

"Obama this week warned Super-delegates to vote the way their states have voted, "if this contest comes down to super-delegates, we are going to be able to say we have more pledged delegates, which means the Democratic voters have spoken. Those super-delegates, those party insiders would have to think long and hard how they would approach the nomination." "

From the Holy Word of the Los Angeles Times (referred to by some as The Party Apocrypha):

and so it came to pass that our servant Carol Ann Campbell from the town called Philadelphia in the land of Pennsylvania received the calling

"Hi, Carol, this is Michelle Obama. I'm the wife of Barack Obama, who is running for President. Just reaching out to see where you stand on this presidential race, and obviously we want your public support of Barack."

"Your primary [in Pennsylvania] is coming up soon and we hope to do well there, but we want people on board who are supportive as soon as possible."

as written by the inspired pen of Peter Nicholas

And now for the today's final reading...

From the New Gospel According to the Center for Responsive Politics:

And yea it has been verily reported that the PAC of St. Barack of Obama has from the year of 2005 to the present day given the revered super delegates in excess of $694,000 while the PAC of the woman Hillary has bestowed some $195,000 to those in power.

Thus endeth the reading.  Praise be.
