| 2. You all are reading too much into this stuff. |
|
They're just waiting for the right moment. There are those that decided they would not endorse so long as the race was contested.

| 4. I think this explains it: |
|
"...there's no real incentive to endorse either one, given that it risks alienating some of their constituents, and they want to give Hillary a chance to leave the race gracefully."
And in addition to alienating some of their constituents I think they're loathe to alienate Hillary JUST IN CASE, which is why they may give her a chance to bow out gracefully.

| 6. Hillary does seem like the type to hold a grudge |
|
Senate Majority Leader is still a possibility, so if they don't have a position secured in an Obama administration they might still be scared of Hillary.

| 5. Undeclared is not the same as undecided |
|
It's really that simple. It's a different story once the polls close.

...but why even meet at all, if only to say "Nope, we haven't decided yet!" Why even put that story out at all? I don't get it. :(
