The Obama Bargain - from WSJ

i think that Obama is going to win the nomination this week.  it looks like we shall get our chance to see how the "Obama Bargain" plays out.

I am still trying to figure this out, Hillary claims she won the popular vote, but Obama won the super delegate votes....did he steal the election from her? Is this a democratic issue because I seem to remember another couple of elections where people were complaining about "stolen elections".... Why would the popular vote not carry the day and who in the heck do super delegates think they are voting for whomever they want and ignoring the popular vote? So why even have a vote? I wouldn't waste my time voting if super delegates are not even going to pay attention to the actual people’s choice?

Hillary did win the popular vote by a fair count of it.  Obama won the delegate count (so far at least - they have to vote for it to count).  This is because of both the arcane rules of the Democrats and their superdelegates who are not accountable to the people.
