Let me get this straight. Clinton, knowing she will be behind in delegates and the popular vote is going to the convention to convince undeclared super delegates that she can win and Obama can't but if she is unsuccessful she will work as hard to get the unelectable Obama elected as she has worked to get the unelectable Clinton elected. Do I understand that correctly?

If we include the Florida delegates "as counted" then Hillary has only picked up a net 38 delegates.

If we include Michigan delegates "as counted", then Hillary has only picked up a net 18 delegates.

This is what Hillary asked for!

Obama now is ahead by 1592 to Hillary's 1424 pledged delegates, a difference of 168 pledged delegates. Obama only needs 33 more pledged delegates to make it impossible for Clinton to get more pledged delegates than him.

Oh, by the way, Obama says Florida's delegates will be counted "and will be at the convention with their party hats on".

Florida House Democratic Leader Dan Gelber says even listing all the delegates in her column won't help Hillary win the nomination.

If our nominee is not decided by the end of the last 6 primary's and she is not the clear winner there is a very good possibility of that happening.

All The Way...

"Riots", "War", "Vengence (sic) against myself and everyone I love"
