So...States after New York don't Matter anymore? No chance for them to Bloviate about Candidates
for local State and National Offices? Because Hillary was getting "heat" from the RW Cables...our Dems had to pull a stunt where New York cut off the ability of every state after the "N" (New York) alphabetical tally to be heard?

Even though those delegates wanted to get their message out as to their great Dem Candidates and what their State was doing to support Dems? Pelosi and Hillary shut it all down to "suspend the rules" (Nancy knows all about that stuff) to get rid of "Swing States" we Dems NEED for '08?

What happenes to all the states who were proud to be at that convention...but because New York Delegation urged "rules suspensions" that a protocol of States Roll Call Vote should have been suspended.

It's disgusting. It's as if States after "New York" don't matter shit to our Party...!! What about states like NC who could through Obama over the top ...and NC has the same or more Delegates than New Jersey that great, populous state in the North East. BUT...OUR DELEGATION never got a chance to talk about how we were gonna' kick Liddy Dole's BUTT outta' the SENATE or all our other great Dems who are running to take back seats from Repugs.

Disgusting!

7. That was stupid. They could have been more inclusive.
Maybe it's a measure of how tense things were.

But, aren't you glad this has been put to bed?

12. Like somebody asked before, why was she nominated?
Protocol

Why was he elected by ovation?

Protocol and a bit of political theater and timing for the afternoon news cycle

This is NOT the first time a convention has done this either

And I can bet the others were in it as well
