They have so far been rejected by the majority of Democratic voters, who think electability and readiness are either better found in Obama or are trumped by Obama's ability to usher in "change" (by the evil Counsel of Foreign Relations). If superdelegates were to cite Clinton's electability and readiness in order to coronate a nominee, it could drive voters out of the party.
