15. It isn't as close as it appears.

Most of the polling data has been deeply flawed and the reporting on it has been selective. Warren is gonna cream this creep.

I won't argue that this is a factor, but there are far closer races that could benefit from this. Of course several of them are blue dogs and there is little reason to throw them a bone as they are likely to be more succesful if they appear to be outside the party proper and the president is likely to be more popular with the public at large and with committed Democratic party activists if he focuses more on the "democratic wing of the Democratic party."

Still being key in a national convention still suggests good things for the future.
