Obama had votes to split MI 50/50

Per Chuck Todd at MSNBC

   Per multiple sources inside the closed Rules and Bylaws Committee lunch, Obama actually had the votes to get a 50-50 delegate split out of Michigan -- but by just a vote or two.

   However, it was decided to go with the 69-59 split to win a larger majority. That measure passed 19-8.

He could have pressed for the truly fair solution, but he didn't... He supported the one that would help heal the divisions with the party... He offered the olive branch...

It's time to bury the hatchet.
