5:2 odds that as soon as they drop the PLA preference, then end up awarding a PLA contract anyway, McDonnell shakes his fists and pulls his pledge again.

That's entirely possible. But, even in the above scenario, no one has lost anything by giving up on the PLA preference now. Maybe if we do that, a PLA contract is awarded anyway and the Gov. pulls back the $150M, but we'd still be no worse off then sticking to the PLA preference now and losing the $150M automatically.

Also, if the Gov. pulls the $150M even if the PLA preference is dropped, there will be political consequences for him. We're in a much better position to make our argument against him at that point.
