That’s attributing a motive to Hillary’s action of staying on the ballot. I was attributing a motive to Obama’s action of taking himself off.
Regardless of motives, the effect was to throw the decision to the Rules and By-laws Committee. This, and similar backroom rulings, were what gave Obama the nomination: not ‘fundamentals’ and ‘narrative.’
