Dem.convention

Maybe I've been asleep, however, all the talk is about the delegate count and super-delegates. What I want to know is, what if one of the candidates gets more delegates and the other gets more votes?

1. You go to the conventions with the delegates you got and not the ones you want. As Rummy would say.

2. My point is

that everyone is arguing about how the "super delegates" should vote. I'm looking for opinions here.

3. I honestly don't think there will be any problem. My guess is that

if Hillary doesn't win with enough of a margin of delegates next Tuesday, she will back out. Even if I'm wrong on that one, if she even waits until Pa. on April 22nd, THAT will be the end of the competition.

4. "All that matters is the delegates".... so sayeth the rules... and ALSO so sayeth the ....

..the Clinton campaign all through December and January.


All that matters is delegates.... though, the Superdelegates might gravitate to the popular vote winner.

By the way... according to realclearpolitics.com, Obama is up over 900,000 in the popular vote.... and he is even up over 350,000 if you include Florida and Michigan.

5. As long as everyone remembers

The idea is to not rip each other apart out there, I'll be a happy camper.
