IF Fla and Mich delegates are seated, how will they be counted? Obama wasn't even on the ballot in |

Michigan. Does that mean he would not get any delegates? And what do the percentages look like in Fla? I'm trying to figure out how big Hillary's delegate lead is for these two states. Thanks.

1. A vote at the DNC could be made to give the "uncommitted" votes to Obama. |

It's not like they wouldn't count, and they make up some 40% of the vote.

4. They shouldn't do that. (not sure they can) What they should do is select uncommitted delegates. |
|
For example, a good number of the total uncommitted were people who would have voted for John Edwards. Just giving them to Obama would be wrong.

Those delegates aren't going to forget that.

5. If they are going to count hold another primary so they can |
|
go head to head... although I am not sure that is a "punishment" for them moving up their primary.
