because the decision will then be stuck in the commitees and rules commisions untill the convention.

her focus is not to reslove MI/FL.. but to make sure they cannot be resolved. in order to achieve this war in the convention.

hillary really wants to make sure mccain wins. shes a traitor to the party.

3. But the superedelegates WILL end this shortly after June 3.

It will be OK.

Howard Dean, Harry Reid, and others want this to end before the convention.

5. Her opinion and $.99 will get you a cup of coffee.

At the end of the day, a pundit doesn't 'know' any more than any other well-informed person.

6. Isn't more like $4.99 for a cup of coffee?

Or is that a gallon of gas next week...

8. Not where I live.

We don't have Starbuck's, etc., so coffee's still reasonably priced here.

7. Poor Rachael - the SDs can not end it until they vote.

They can not vote until the convention at the end of August.

I guess she is a roads scholar instead of a Rhodes scholar.

9. But they can certainly declare which candidate they support

They can always change their minds, but is the stupidass corporate
media REALLY going to cover the non-story of whether the Supers will
really stand by their word and support Obama? Once they declare --
and he has the magic number, under any scenario -- the general
election campaign will begin and anyone still contemplating the
primary will look just as out of touch as HRC does today.

11. I am jumping up and down for the supers to declare BEFORE May 31.

Clinton must NOT be allowed to muck this up in committee proceedings and grandstand appeals, ensuring that her vicious attack against Obama drags on until August. Superdelegates, STOP THIS NOW.

Now is the time to act, Speaker Pelosi. There are ~50 uncommitteds in the House. If they move as a unit for Obama, he will go over the top with the remaining primaries in June.

Move, damn it. MOVE.

12. And the majority of the country (Obama supporters)

Will detest her more than they already do. And she will STILL lose. I almost hope she does it. We'll never have to deal with her again if she does.

14. 90 delegates need to pledge for Obama before May 31

That way, she cannot take this to the convention b/c, no matter how Fl and MI are settled, Clinton cannot get the numbers to win.

90 super delegates.

Who are the super delegates who are still unannounced/uncommitted? If Obama is holding any back, he needs to let them declare now.

Clinton has made it abundantly clear that she is willing to destroy the party and lose the November election for her own political ambition. She is, therefore, a danger to the democratic party at this crucial time.
