take on HRC and the battle(s) yet to be and the big one at the convention. HRC is going to take this all the way to the convention and along the way pick up several more states and once there she will disclose what I believe is the main purpose.

No one has ever said HRC is stupid and none will. Lets go back to 2000 and the Florida vote. All the uproar about those folks, mainly black that was purged from the voter registration rolls, and all those that was unable to vote because their names happen not to be at the precinct they usually voted. To top it all off while votes were tossed out across the state after the election, a disproportionate number were tossed out in African American communities. "The people that I represent have died to have the opportunity to vote," said U.S. Rep. Corrine Brown, a Florida Democrat and an African American.

Now to the point of all this.By taking this fight to the convention, HRC is forcing Obama to become the guy who's against counting every vote. After the 2000 debacle, does Obama want to be that guy? Wonder how African Americans will feel about that?
