The idea that Clinton can narrow her deficit among all delegates and then vault over Obama with a rush of support from uncommitted superdelegates is still remote. But it no longer seems impossible. There are fresh signs that the dispute over the rogue primaries held by Florida and Michigan may be resolved in a way that delivers more delegates to her than to Obama.
