10. It's good for Obama, but it also galvanizes Hillary's supporters
I don't think the Obama people are taking anything into account that doesn't match their enthusiasms.

Right after the MSM reported that Hillary was out of money, there was a surge in contributions, a surge that has been well-sustained. The Obama supporters here were unable to stop gloating long enough to consider what that means.

I posted about the differences in styles of campaigning at different points, sprinting vs marathoning. The response was immediately ugly. Nearly all of the drama in this election has only happened over a period of the last five weeks.

History tells us that when people listen only to what they want to hear and attack those who say anything different, they usually have a nasty surprise waiting for them.
