I know this is a couple of months late, but isn’t the Clinton campaign’s insistence that including the MI and FL delegates is acceptable under DNC rules because the rules could change in committee sorta like arguing that something is constitutional because we can amend the constitution? If she had a self-conscious strategy from day one of going after those delegates in the hopes that she could get those delegates seated, it would be one thing, but every bit of evidence indicates that her campaign’s reliance on FL and MI is just a desperate gamble, a last-minute plan to cling to when it became clear that Obama’s delegate strategy made him the inevitable winner.

In other news, Edwards endorsed Obama today, a story that’s also a month or two late. Endorsing now is like waiting until the bottom of the 9th to bet on a baseball game. I’m glad he did it, but if he was going to wait this long, why not wait another week or two and announce so that his pledged delegates are what pushes Obama over the finish line?
