Various media and blogs are reporting that Richardson's campaign is instructing precinct captains to advise supporters to go to Obama if Richardson is not viable.
So far no official confirmation from the Richardson campaign.
I find it hard to belive that most Richardson supporters will go to Obama, but who knows? I'll ask the captain in my precinct later today.
Anyone else have information on this?

It's true...
The campaign will deny it in public, but I have first hand confirmation of this from the Obama campaign.

There's a Biden deal also...

But this wasn’t confirmed by my Obama source.

if that is the case, then Obama better win big
otherwise he will fail to meet expectations in Iowa.

Any quid pro quo?
In the few precincts where Obama is not viable, are his supporters to join with Richardson’s (unviable) supporters to elect a Richardson delegate?

I assume they would do that anyway
rather than send supporters to Clinton or Edwards.

I want to hear it from someone
associated with the Richardson campaign.
