If it's OK to sway pledged delegates away from their pledges...
...then can Edwards do the same? Kucinich? Gravel? Dodd? Biden? Gore?

Nader?

Do you defend this practice, Clinton supporters? Or do you agree with the rational among us that it's a scumbag tactic?

I am so unbelievably sick of her.

1. Exactly...if pledged delegates are swayed from their candidate
why would they pick Hillary?

That doesn't make any sense at all.

4. I'm thinking Kucinich might still have a shot at this!
After all, pledged delegates are a "misnomer", like Hillary says.

Go Kucinich!

2. Not credibly, while whining that voters in MI & FL didn't get a voice
Clinton campaign has NO integrity.

3. Kitchen sink tactics...only now its throw out any strategy
that gives Clinton a chance of winning and see what sticks.
