Florida, Michigan seated with half-votes: Clinton okays taking it to Credentials Committee

By GottaLaff

Open thread.

To answer Commenter Chris, the Credentials Committee can restore full votes, instead of 1/2-votes.

MSNBC:

Andrea Mitchell: It remains to be seen if it's an empty threat by Hillary. It could be a bargaining chip to see how she's treated by Obama camp, to see what superdelegates will do, how well she'll do in the remaining primaries... and to reassure voters that she's not caving.

Rachel Maddow: I see this as a dramatic day, with the results of the primaries fading in importance. What happened in this room is a clear signal. Florida and Michigan got their resolutions passed with support from Obama. Michigan: The Clinton campaign said NO. The atmosphere was so hostile it nearly derailed the meeting.

Chuck Todd: Big thing: The DNC is not controlled by the Clinton campaign any more. This is Obama's party now. Yes it's true that Ickes can threaten, but Don Fowler signaled, "guys, it's over."

Mitchell: The screaming: Clinton supporters are shouting "Denver, Denver!" They want to be there at the convention. They will be, but they won't get a full vote.

Todd: New magic number is 2118. Obama will only need about 20 supers after splitting the remaining primaries, which is a fair assumption. Will he be able to have them come out before Tuesday, and have a Frank Capra moment?

Mitchell: The Clinton camp will play on his weaknesses, including his resignation from his church.
