Florida and Michigan coming in?
From FirstRead,
(PS. Such a deal would also extinguish Clinton's excuse for staying in until May 31.)
Later: Then I guess it's no wonder that the Clinton camp summarily rejects this Michigan settlement. (That the pols of Michigan are proposing!)
Later: The Florida party head denies that a Fla deal is near.
Everything we're hearing is that a deal over Florida and Michigan could be cut in the next few days. The Obama campaign apparently realizes they have plenty of room to give. The hurdle isn't Clinton and Obama anymore, though; it is folks in the DNC who believe those two recalcitrant states still need to be punished in some form, so states realize there are consequences to doing this in 2012. The latest offer from Michigan is a 69-59 split, with supers going however they want.

The DNC has a good point. If they let the Michigan and Florida delegates count in any meaningful way, and especially if they end up deciding the nomination - what state is going to play by the rules from now on?
As for Clinton rejecting the settlement offer - no surprise there. It's not about the Michigan voters - it's about her.

I figure there has to be some sort of settlement, though. Half value, something like that. My opinion is they should disallow the superdelegates because they were the reason all this came about.
As for Clinton, yeah. How does that play as it becomes more apparent?
