What, me worry?
With Maddow's tales of gloom and doom, should we be worried about HRC's threats?

eerrrmmmm... no.

1) The final Primary is about two weeks away. Most, if not all, of the SDs will have made their decision not long after the MT and SD primaries.

2) About the committee meeting at the end of May. It's filled with party members from posts that they were elected too. Most, if not all, pro-HRC members have constituencies to answer to, and none of them are willing to commit career suicide for HRC. The committee decision is almost certainly going to be that the delegation from FL and MI are halved. Most likely, the distribution will likely be 60/40 in favor for HRC or evenly split 50/50. Regardless, neither scenario will give HRC remotely enough delegates to threaten Obama's lead. She can (and will) appeal, but the deck is stacked against her.

3) HRC's threats to take it to the convention. Where have we heard this before?
