Hillary hasn't given up. She's in contact with the super-delegates, indirectly through those who are interceding on her behalf, and she's probably talking to them in secret as well.
It might have been another forum where I explained that it would play out by Obama revealing his true self over the summer and that he would flip-flop and make a lot of gaffes, plus his inexperience coupled with a worsening economy, and of course the "race card" would come together in a perfect storm to strip away his super-delegate support.
If 112 super-delegates defect (just 24% of Obama's super-delegates), then Obama does not have enough votes to win the nomination on the first round.
If that happens, more super-delegates will defect and Hillary will win on the 3rd round.
She would be forced to accept Obama as a running mate, and he would be obliged to accept the VP job, or his political future will be as a candidate for the Republicans, Independents, or any party other than the Democrat Party.

Don't forget the super-delegates are not committed. They can change their support at any time.
The SD's are the ones who put him over the top, NOT the actual voters. That just doesn't sit right with a bunch of dems.
I agree, this convention should be just delicious to watch, as Dean & Company try to "control" the masses from embarassing Obama - and possibly, possibly voting for HILLIARY.
In that case, it would be a landslide for McCain.
