Hmmm...: Michigan Dems Ponder Splitting Delegates 65-59 For Clinton
Kind of a false democracy where no one really votes but their "votes" are counted anyway, according to how Democratic bigs figure the public would have voted.
Clinton has argued that she should get 73 delegates based on the results of the Jan. 15 primary, which she won — 18 more than Obama.
Obama, who removed his name from the ballot, wants the 128 pledged delegates split evenly, 64-64.
The compromise, suggested Tuesday in a letter to Michigan Democratic Chairman Mark Brewer, fell halfway between the two proposals.
Still, it's probably close enough. And it would give Our Girl another six delegates. And she a-gonna need 'em.
