The problem is that many candidates also pushed it into the Convention…for example Ted Kennedy, Gary Hart, Jerry Brown, Chisholm/McCarthy, George Wallace- some of these had real chances of winning…others were pushing for changes in the platform to Democratize the party or get certain planks they favored on the agenda. Then there the ones that just wanted to drop a grenade into the party or had egos vaster than their interests in party unity.

Hillary could continue this onwards asserting that she deserves all of the Michigan delegates and the vast majority of Florida’s…not to mention throwing out all the meddleson and “undemocratic caucuses”…and (now that Obama has the majority of them) getting rid of the Super Delegates.
