21. Nice attempt to distract us with an unrelated an unsubstantiated issue...
That is more in the style of Karl Rove...

Though I disagree with her on many other issues, it cannot really be argued that if we really want to be a party espousing democratic principles with a small D, that the superdelegates should NOT override the votes of the pledged delegates unless there is a VERY good reason for doing so (aka the nominee is found to have committed a crime after the earlier primaries, etc.). To do it in partisan style as would be the case if "Hillary superdelegates" might do with voting her in despite her having less pledged delegates than Obama would really rankle the voters!

Whether or not she's a mole, and that remains to be decided, that is not the issue discussed in this thread, and shouldn't have any bearing on the legitimacy of her statement.
