Yesterday saw a few pundits- Monica Crowley for one, a couple unmemorable on twitter - start to float the idea that Obama knows Hillary will be charged, but will wait until she is nominated to control the process of selecting a successor nominee.
If that happens, and it ain’t Bernie, they’re going to go nuts.
If true, then the entire Dem primary process will have been a charade. That will make for some very unhappy Dem voters.
I have thot all along that the plan was to: Make sure Hillary is nominated AND Bernie is out of the running; have Hilary step aside; and put JOE BIDEN in. Bernie’s high numbers will make this not work as smoothly as Obama had hoped. Should be an interesting convention.
