Clinton Co-Chair: Red-State Delegates "Second Class"
What a 'class act' the Clinton Campaign is. Yet another brilliant move...

"Superdelegates are not second-class delegates," says Joel Ferguson, who will be a superdelegate if Michigan is seated. "The real second-class delegates are the delegates that are picked in red-state caucuses that are never going to vote Democratic."

2. Learn to love the 17-state strategy, elizm
You know, that electoral prison that never lets our policy ideas see the light of day.

5. Owch. That's cold.
So much for a 50 state strategy. Just write off all the Dems in red states. The game is win no matter who you step on. Jeez, that guy should be fired.

8. Let me get this straight - they don't want the red state Democrats
with votes that count, but they do want Democrats where the votes don't count. Life would be so much easier for Hillary in a monarchy.

12. Well, Bill Clinton's appearance here Wednesday
has been cancelled. Hillary's 3/1 appearance appears to be up in the air as well. Are they considering pulling out after tomorrow? :shrug:

11. Just when I think the arrogance and sense of entitlement from the Clinton camp can't any worse

13. They're sure not going to vote Dem if Hillary is the candidate.
And some blue states could be at risk then, too.
