8. Risk/Reward
This is a classic risk/reward decision by Clinton.

If he campaigns for Davis and Davis looses, then the assumption is that Davis was too far gone to save AND Big dog gets a popularity kick for standing by the party in its hour of need.

If Davis wins, Big Dog is now in a position to influence all races, nation-wide because he will have pulled off a Democratic Party miracle.

Clinton is a master politician. He wouldn't do any of this unless the risk/reward calculation has been thoroughly vetted.
