It looks like the Clinton supporters are coming to their senses and starting to support the idea of a do-over in Michigan and Florida. At last! This is exactly what we need to legitimate the process going forward. Let Clinton or Obama win in fair fights with both campaigns in full swing and both names on the ballot. This will also add two more contests to allow them to prove their mettle. Clinton supporters are saying that this will give her the possibility of showing the momentum needed. I agree. To the extent that Michigan and Florida may get to do what they have long wanted to do - cast decisive votes in the race and make the candidates pay attention to them - it's a win-win for them.

Well, a do-over is better than nothing at all, I suppose. I wonder how quickly they can arrange for these contests? And who would pay?
It will be the DNC or nobody who will pay.
Well, there was another option I didn't consider: state parties and the campaigns. The DNC won't pay, and neither will the states.
