What would it take for Clinton to concede defeat? An insider remembers -- and draws lessons from -- the backroom deals that ended another brutal, racially charged Democratic slugfest.
  • Cheers BryanS!

    So I have to sort of think Clinton is pushing this more to make it look like an issue of fairness to get her supporters riled up. (The problem being that she agreed not to campaign there either and to abide by the party's punishment of MI and FL.) Netting another 55 delegates means she would still need a lot of the unpledged supers. Her thin margin in Indiana undermines the narrative of the tide-change in february they have been pushing (cited in the huffpo piece) as a lot of people abandoned her largely on the gas tax holiday business. I don't see a way out in the numbers game unless something crazy happens. But never underestimate the power of crazy in polictics.

    Thanks again for the info Bryan!
