The dilemma is that Obama is ahead by virtue of his winning big in states that will stay red.

I'm not saying those states can or should be ignored, just that the DNC needs to be thinking strategically.

PA and IN will hopefully clarify things....maybe he'll make some inroads into her groups. If not, then the remaining superdelegates should, IMO, take a cold, hard look at things.
It seems to me that we may have the kind of situation that the superdelegates were created for.

At the very least, do some polling....some good, unbiased polling to find out why 30% of Hillary's supporters say thay can't back Obama. That's a big number. How can it be overcome without knowing what's behind this apparent animosity?

Hillary can't tell these voters how get behind Obama unless she knows what's in their heads.

Again, I prefer Hillary be POTUS but only slightly. I'll give Obama full support, call for him in the fall, or whatever. I'm just worried the party will screw around and not analyze things in time to assure a win in the fall.
