17. If Dean doesn't walk into the convention
with the nomination in his pocket, he won't leave with it.

And what happens then?

Do the Deanites go home, or do they vote third party or for *?

Interesting scenario.

If McCauliffe and the boys are absolutely convinced Dean will go down in flames during the general election do they have the balls to try and broker a deal to put Clark in, or Gore?

We'll see...

If Dean DOES have the necessary number of votes to win on the first ballot before he enters the convention, what do the "insiders" do then?
