Can't Florida, with your line of argumentation, only help Obama (unless he receives almost NO votes)? Ironically, for support, you point to Michigan where Obama arguably received more publicity because Hillary only beat "uncommitted" by 16 points or so. Doesn't that support my argument that a loss in Florida won't hurt Obama at all?

I said no such thing. *Sigh* These conversations with you never change. All I said was that
it matters, in contrast to you who said it does
NOT matter. This is not complicated.
If Hillary wins as expected it will boost her campaign's credentials, even if it gets only cursory media attention in the wake of the Republican contest. If Obama wins against expectations, it will likely get HUGE coverage.
It's a mystery to me how you've retreated under the "no delegates, no matter" tent.
Just for review and your short attention span:
