I doubt it. (2.00 / 2)

Michigan came up with a compromise that was between the Clinton and Obama positions and Hillary rejected it. I think that's about it for Michigan. She's never getting all the delegates, and she doesn't seem to be willing to take less. If what she's shooting for is seating MI and FL as per their illegal counts, then that's not going to be settled before the end of May, and the rules committee is not going to let the two states off without any penalty whatsoever. If this story is true, then I'd say she just lost the high ground on MI and FL.

Re: I doubt it. (2.00 / 2)

A minor quibble...

She never had the high ground.  This has been a political stunt from the get-go, and full of fail.

Why?  Because horseshit like this may impress the voting public to a small degree, but it will not impress superdelegates.  As evidenced by the continuous flow of support to Obama.

"Popular vote" is code for "swaying the superdelegates".  They know what the deal is in MI and FL.
