And if she does get those votes, then no problem.
As far as Michigan goes; I think the ballot spoke for itself. We only can suppose that Obama lost. But there is no proof.
The truth is, Hillary wants those delegates seated as is. It is Obama who wants them redone. It is Hillary who stands to lose more, not Obama; by a concerted effort by Obama to campaign in these states. 55%-45% victories will do nothing to help her when Obama wins his states by much larger percentages. That's why his delegate lead is close to 200. And each day passing will see more and more undecided delegates commiting to Obama.
