What will be the excuse when the superdelegates state their intentions and Hillary still loses?

1. "Super Delegates dont actually count until the convention"

"They can always change their minds. Anything can happen."

[scheming daemons]

3. Bingo. They'll claim that the SDs haven't REALLY voted yet.... of course, neither

have the PDs.

[bunnies]

7. Yep. Oh, and dont forget...

PD's can always change their mind too! :eyes: They'll never give it up. Never.

9. Technically, by Clinton's standard - McCain isn't the GOP nominee yet.

4. Good lord....I am terrified that this will be her response.

2. Obama is a sexist playing cruel political games

I mean, he's just parading these people out with no concern for her delicate feelings. :shrug: :cry:

6. A vast left-wing conspiracy

10. I fully expect her to say that no delegate votes are final until the convention

whereby the vulture will loom and wait it out.

A concession in light of all that they're trying to do now would be a welcome surprise, but still a surprise.

11. She'll end up being humiliated if she stays in, because

the very senior-most party leaders are going to come out and support Obama. Then what is she going to do, when Al Gore, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Carter, et al throw it down and say, Enough?

[LoZoccolo]

12. You are right, what will she do? It will be a test of the nature of her shamelessness. n/t

[frazzled]

13. They will say Obama was chosen by the SDs, not the people

Thus the extreme mathematical contortions to claim the popular vote lead: they want to make it look as if the SDs have decided the thing--which can only serve to deligitimatize Obama as the nominee. Shameful. But that is the only intent I can see.

And that is why Obama is trickling out the superdelegates so slowly--so that it will not look like they "put him over the top."
