Whenever a question comes up that has incredibly high stakes, there will be a lengthy legal battle, regardless of the clarity of the applicable procedure, law or caselaw.

But the more important question is, since the procedure exists, and actually is quite clear when taken in totality, what is the strategic plan in place to take full advantage of the existing procedure?

"How will the DNC leadership handle the political strategy situation created by the death of the candidate, if such an unfortunate event ocurred?"

My understanding is that the Kerry camp already has a plan for a local expert legal team on the ground in every state. I hope that a federal team is also being assembled for any federal questions.
