Party Schism - Unity - Victory in November - Conjecture and Questions
Conjecture: After the Primaries, SD's will endorse Obama and bring him to the total needed for the nomination. There will be NO brokered convention. Florida and Michigan Delegation seating, will become a non-issue at that time, because those Delegates could not overcome the new total. Obama will be the presumptive nominee.

Clinton will NOT concede gracefully. There will be continued litigation up to and including the time of the Convention in August. The SD's will be characterized, by Clinton or Clinton supporters, as having usurped the will of the people by disenfranchising Michigan and Florida. There will be accusations of fraud or malfeasance in the State Caucus processes.

This will be much the same, as if the SD's had tilted the election for Clinton, despite Obama's lead in every area.

Will cries for "unity" be heeded? Presuming this scenario is at least possible, will it effect our hopes for Victory in November?

How will this play out?
