17. Hillary is a tempest in a teapot. Obama is not against a re-vote and has absolutely everything
to gain from one. It's the uncertainty about whether or not there will be a re-vote that benefits Hillary. Once the re-vote is in place (and the MI legislature has to sell the cost to MI voters, keep in mind), then her pop. vote and delegate counts she won against Uncommitted go "poof" and the gap between her and Obama is then huge until at least June. She knows there will be no re-vote so she's just milking a stance that she thinks shows she's fair.

Does anyone here believe that Obama will not do better in MI (with an energized electorate and only two candidates on the ballot) than Uncommitted? Seriously? (Rendell doesn't count).
