The way Michigan and Florida were handled is reprehensible, of course, but the results of those primaries that were held in defiance of party rules can't be taken at face value. Obama didn't campaign at all in Michigan; if he had, the results would have undoubtedly be at least a little different.

I have no solution to suggest.

I agree that most Democrats and other left-leaning voters will be glad to vote for either contender and against the GOP come November, but I think that Obama would have a slight edge over Clinton in electability. He's more likely to pull in folks who might otherwise not vote at all (among African-Americans and the young). Hillary, on the other hand, might very well bring a out a number of right wing nuts to vote against her who might otherwise not be bothered to vote for "not-conservative-enough" McCain.
