Hillary is put over the top by super delegates PROVIDING:

Hillary comes on strong winning Pennsylvania, Kentucky, W. Virginia, and Indiana by large margins negating smaller wins by Barack and WINNING the overall primary POPULAR VOTE.

For now, forego the debate on whether that's doable because I for one accept the premise that she would only win by a small bargain.  Could the Democratic Party faithful accept that decision and be ok with that?

Would it make any difference if Hillary agreed to put Barack on the ticket as VP??  In other words, would that be enough to cushion the blowfor her nomination to be acceptable to the rank in file?

Anger over the process would trump the fact that she is almost exactly the same as he on policy?

I remember working hard for Reagan against Ford in 1976 in a similar close race and ended up voting for Ford in the general even though I was still pissed.
