"Get over it. This isn't about Clinton. It has moved way beyond that. You can't defend disenfranchising entire states by citing a contract. Clinton never signed a contract saying she would never try to get the delegates seated. Neither did Obama. They just agreed not to participate in the election, and neither did (although Obama's supporters did violate the contract, they were not signatories so it doesn't count)."
I think you're blowing a bit of smoke here. If she keeps her name on the ballot arguing that it doesn't matter that she is the only candidate because the results won't count anyway and then the day after the primary she turns around and says that she thinks they should count, it's very hard to argue that this was done in good faith. Presumably she knew long before primary day that not seating the Michigan delegation wasn't fair. She could have fought for different treatment of the Michigan delegation back when the other candidates still had a chance to compete against her. But no - the morning after she won an uncontested primary, she and her handlers had a sudden epiphany that it wasn't fair not to award her the delegates which she won, ahem, fair and square.
