DNC unity panel seemingly makes progress

At least that's how it's being sold. There's going to be a reduction of superdelegates by 60%, but there will still be superdelegates when there should be none. And 'most' of the remaining superdelegates will have their votes ties to the results of their States, again leaving room for some of them to vote any damned way they want. These suggestions will go the the rules and bylaws committee, dominated by the corporate wing of the Party so they can and likely will ignore even these minimum concessions. If it does miraculously get approved by the committee, it goes to a full DNC vote, again dominated by the corporatists. It once again seems like so much show designed to placate the progressive wing while maintaining the status quo under the guise of a 'fair' vote. We'll see.
