2. I wouldn't be surprised if the DNC allows a revote but takes away their superdelegates as punishment |

You can't reward the two states for breaking the rules by allowing them to have the last say in our nomination after trying to be the ones who wanted to decide it early on.

It was they who created the debacle to begin with.

4. It's annoying how Hillary always stands her ground and fights for what she believes in. |
|
People might find her more likable if she would only learn to cave and quit.
:sarcasm:

9. She fights for her own self interests. The Clinton's have pretty much ALWAYS done that. |
|
That hasn't always worked out so well for the rest of us.

7. Who said they wouldn't? |
|
And Hill didn't give a shit about FL or MI until she realized how desperately she needed those votes. She won't be getting the pledged delegates as they stand. How sad. Hey, Obama's going to win again tomorrow. Something to cheer about for Obama supporters.

14. Well this Michigander is thankful |

that someone is fighting for our votes. Whoever is willing to fight for us is a winner in my eyes. And whoever is going to come back on my post and say: She did not care about your votes until she needed them....etc. I say I really don't give a crap. Of course a politician is going to go after all the votes possible to win. Duh! Why are we acting like it is a bad thing that she is fighting to win? Obama is doing the same thing. It is a competition after all.

16. Fighting for your votes huh? Funny she's not fighting for mine. |
|
I live in a state that Obama won. Clinton has frankly told the press she's going after PLEDGED delegates, effectively trumping the will of the people in states whose votes DID count. Are you really sure she's fighting for YOU or for herself? Because I'd really beg to differ on this one.

17. She wants these two states to win the popular vote imo. |
|
I did not say she was fighting for me in particular. No politician really gives a crap about me personally. They just want our votes. I just want my vote to count. I do not have a lofty impression of either Clinton or Obama. They are both severely flawed in my opinion. I, unlike most Obama supporters, will always remember that they are merely politicians. They are not Gods. They will not do 10% of the crap they are promising us now. They never have and they never will. The last time I saw a large portion of Americans worship a President without regard to the truth, we got George W. Bush. This is no different. We are listening with adoration without asking the tough questions, and we will get screwed for it.
