Keith Olbermann and Chuck Todd examine the situation.

Hilary says "seat them as they are now"

Obama says "whatever, we'll follow the rules".

1. Clintons have always believed the rules don't apply to them.

If Clinton had lost those state she wouldn't be making this stink about it.
I think they should have a Re-vote though. and MI this time include Obama. I think he'd do really well in Michigan if not win the state.
If these state get their act together they could do it the same day as Penn the media could have a big crazy circus like they like to do.

2. Yo! Howie!

Read my sig line, you childish cow.

3. Uh, yeah, but Obama wasn't even on the ballot in MI

and didn't campaign in FL. Shouldn't there be an actual vote to determine which delegates to send?

4. I have consistently said;

MI is a much different situation from FL. I understand that MI was in no way legitimate. FL, however, had a fine primary with more than double the turnout of 2004 and all of the candidates appearing on the ballot. There is simply no reason NOT to seat the delegates. The Voters didn't break the rules; the State Party did.

5. Florida Votes..What they should do. I am a voter here.

But I did not vote because it was nothing.
I suggest. Send all registered voters a poll sheet
to return in the mail. With a carbon copy. Count them correctly, (if possible).
Then the Delegates can be counted. The cost of this, is Florida's punishment for
trying to be bad ass. Peace

6. IMPORTANT!! Know one thing about the FL primary change

It was a Republican legislature that forced the change through despite the objections of the DNC.

Now, ask the question again...why was it so important for Florida to change its primary date so late in the game?

While all the Democrats are screaming bloody murder, FLupblicans are laughing their asses off at us.

7. No, that is a lie. The vote was 115 to 1 and a Dem introduced it.

The lies need to stop.
