I didn't hear the entire conversation but what I heard made me aware of how little I know about all this. On NPR today as I was driving home, an Obama delegate (20 odd year activist in the Democratic party) called in -- and said he could not bring himself to vote for Obama after revelations re. Wright and the Senator's reactions. The NPR host -- wanted to quickly turn away from the caller, but asked why, to which he replied, that Obama had not been vetted enough and that he was surrounded by Reagan Democrats who felt the same way. The host quickly changed the subject with "that just sounds like buyer's remorse", but it was a delegate pledged to Obama!
Do the rules allow such a thing? Is the "delegate math" -- based on "fuzzy logic"?
