What is worrying in these polls is that only roughly half of the supporters of each candidate say they would vote for the other candidate in the GE.

6. He doesn't have to beat her
In fact, it will likely wind up that even if the invalidated elections were counted as-is, he'd still have more delegates than Hillary. If a new primary is run, he will only make the difference between the two closer.

4. I think Obama should agree to the Republican solution for Florida- halve the delegates
Florida is obviously a strong state for Hillary, and using the Republican solution should be acceptable to the voters and to Gov. Crist since the Republican party is doing the same thing.

7. Also, that poll result supports just giving each candidate half the MI delegates
