Revote in MI as they seem to be going to and Obama should accept the Florida results as is to avoid the mail in ballots. How big would he look if he said that he would accept those delegates?

Not very big if he ends up losing the nomination. The closer this gets the better argument Hill has with the Supers. Especially if she has some momentum going into the convention.

I think every delegate is very important. When I read this thread, and the confidence everyone has that Obama will get the Nom, I sometimes just shake my head.

This is anything but a done deal for Obama.

Michael,

he can't accept the Florida results as is. Hillary would move into the lead. However, if they did a revote, based on the polls, he would retain his lead. The race is still too close for him to be so magnanimous that he'd give her the unfair vote that occurred in Florida.
