Who number almost 50 between the Clinton supporters and undeclared delegates in FL and MI. That's enough to get things uncomfortably close for Obama.
Yeah, but even if the pledged delegates were seated as-is, that would still give Obama a 100-delegate lead. Assuming they split the remaining pledged delegates evenly, as well as the non-FL and MI supers (which is a very generous gift for Hillary), she could take all 50 FL and MI supers and still lose the delegate race.
At this point, you almost have to think that it's worth it for Obama to just sign on to whatever plan the DNC and Clinton campaign approves, just to kick Hillary's last remaining crutch out from under her. Of course, he's going to win any way you slice it, so maybe he's just going to kick back and enjoy a month of low-pressure campaigning before he tears into McCain.
