What will it take?
When Obama over takes Hillary in the super delegate count, I fully expect an announcement from her camp that: "Super delegates should not count. They subvert the will of the people."
Just like caucuses. Just like small states--except where she won. Just like every vote that wasn't for her.
According to her argument, not one person in Michigan would vote for Obama, I heard one of her surrogates last night say that he should get zero delegates from there, she should get all of them. The uncommitted should go to her, as, alas, no one else was entitled to them. And remember, she was the one who decided to flaunt the rules of the DNC, why should she be REWARDED when others --Obama, Edwards, et. al.--followed them?
Everybody wants Michigan and Florida to be represented in some way. But Hillary's way or the highway is no way to do it. Obama did not stop a revote. The people in Michigan and Florida did. And do not forget, Hillary vetoed a caucus, because she thought she would lose. She wanted the odds in her favor. If she had been winning caucuses, you better believe she would have been all over that.
She knew the rules when she started. Now she wants them her way, even if she broke them. Enough. Hillary: Stay in as long as you want, but quit insulting us and treating us like we are stupid.
