33. I only meant numbers-wise
check out my analysis... she cannot catch him unless he slips, slips hardcore. If we wins Texas she's basically mathematically eliminated: officially (unless, again, he slips).

I've always criticized her attempts to seat Florida and Michigan; I even wrote a online petition trying to stop this from happening. I didn't end up circulating it though, this back when I was young and foolish and didn't fully understood the complexities of the matter ;-) But by then momentum has swung so far in Obama's favor that it's become clear that on the level of the nomination this is a moot point.

on the level of ethics, of course it matters, A LOT. her breaking of her pledge about FL and MI was the first thing that turned me against her: I was an undecided voter up to that point but now favor Obama, passionately at that for more reasons than my reservations about Hillary. I also, for the record, think the DNC was stupid for handling it the way it did---they should have penalized them in half like the RNC did, or come up with something else ahead of time. I also, for the record, don't like Iowa, NW, NV, and SC's monopoly, and favor a small to medium state rotating schedule so things are more balanced and less in favor of those very limited demographics.
