“This popular vote thing? The only reason we’ve succumbed to it is that I’ve talked to superdelegates that want to know the total,” says Chuck Todd, NBC’s political director.

This is HillBilly's last hope...to surpass Obama in some sort of popular vote total by the convention and make the argument that individual votes should trump delegate counts. Apparently there is some fire underneath that smoke, assuming you can believe anything an NBC News reporter says.

And will the party that was screeching the same essential argument ad nauseum in 2000 reject it in 2008 to save Obama? Won't they be hypocrites? Won't it be a complete and utter debacle of a convention? Yes to all of the above...pass the popcorn, please.

Pass the popcorn. The Democrat party could be melting down this year. No matter what happens, somebody will be p***sed off at the result and claim its unfair.
