I watched U.S. Rep. Brad Miller (D-NC) on Fox News last night and he was hemming and hawing and stammering about whether he was, as a superdelegate, going to back Obama or Clinton. He kept repeating that he’d see what “the people” decide on May 6 in our primary before making up his mind.
John Podhoretz may have put his finger on the source of Miller’s feigned or unfeigned indecisiveness:
The point here is: A thousand or so people are going to decide this primary. It behooves those people to have this go on as long as possible, because that is how they are going to get the most goodies. Maybe this is what Hillary truly understands.
Maybe it’s what Brad Miller understands, too. Strangely, though, in response to a direct question he left the door open to ignoring what “the people” want and supporting a different candidate if he so chose. I guess you can have it both ways.
