But here's the interesting thing: Let's suppose that superdelegates knew for a fact that Hillary would win in November -- and that Obama would lose in November.
They would then have to make a calcuation: "Should we think long-term of short-term?"
Obviously, any perception that the insiders "stole" the election from Obama would have a long-term negative impact for the party.
Thus, Hillary may face superdelegates who have decided it's better to lose with Obama than win with Clinton.
How do you beat that?
