Speculative question...............

Let's say that the dims go all the way to their convention and then realize that Obama just ain't going to hack it.
Can the dim delegates throw Obama under the bus and pick a new stumble bum to run?

WW.....I believe they could. The delegates at the convention could indeed get together and withdraw their support for the stain and select another candidate. But I'm thinkin' that we'd all know who that other candidate was prior to the convention.

Now...I could be wrong here, but I believe that it is during the convening of the electoral college that the delegates are "pledged" to a particular candidate...but I'm not sure.
