I doubt Fla/Mich would be this much of an issue if Obama was trailing. He's not the type to harp about a rule that he and the entire party agreed to well in advance.
Enough with this poor disenfranchised Florida and Michigan stuff. Those states knew since 2006 that if they broke the rule for their primaries that they'd lose their delegates. They did it anyway - on their own - with full knowledge of the consequences. Hillary publicly acknowledged this. Obama wasn't even on the Michigan ballot. She's being incredibly disingenuine here. She's showing her true misleading and spinning self.
I hope Obama doesn't select Hillary. I doubt he will.
smurph...you just can`t do it...you can`t just erase two big states like florida and michigan...
speaking of elitism,this is the ultimate in elitism...
last time i checked,the people of florida and michigan didn`t decide to have early primaries...
sanction whomever`s responsible..
how can you hold the voters,who did nothing wrong,responsible?....
that`s plain unfair...undemocratic....
you`re saying f.u. to every citizen of each state that exercised their constitutional right?....because some political hacks made an excessive draconian decision?....
honestly,no big mccain fan here,but,it would serve the dems right if mclame won because of florida and michigan...
now,they`re gonna decide how to "apportion" the delegates?...who`s gonna decide?....the hacks?...
they`re saying f-ck the people...
all due respect,but you dems are really scary...
all that said,it`s the dems` decision....if that`s what they want..if thats fair to them,so be it....:shrug:
