33. Yes, it is. He should not have dropped off the ballot to try to look good in Iowa.
He and the others who dropped off the Michigan ballot at the last minute did so in an attempt to upstage Hillary in Iowa. They knew that Iowa was pissed at Mi and they figured if they got off, it would make them look better than Hillary. Hillary and Dodd stayed on in Mi, because they did not want to turn Mi against the Democrats. If you can not trust Hillary, at least trust Dodd. He always knew he would never win. He just does the right thing.

Obama, Edwards, Richardson, Biden were willing to snub Mi to score points in Iowa. Michigan has always known this and it has them hopping mad. The only way to make it up to them is a re-vote. Which Obama won't do now, because he knows that he disrespected them and he is afraid of voter payback.
