She won Michigan, and Florida. She didn't campaign there any more or less than anyone else. The Democratic party somehow feels it is OK to disenfranchise these 2 States just because they wanted to pick an earlier date for their primary. If I lived in MI or FL I'd be screaming to allow my delegates to vote.

I live in FL... and I did not vote due to our delegates not being seated. It was understood prior to the election that it was not going to happen...ON both sides.

To now challenge it and try to change it because Obama is starting to kick your teeth in is reprehensible. I've said it before, I will not vote for Clinton if she's the only name on the ticket in the general election.

She represents the "old guard"..... do whatever you can to whoever you can to get elected. She just added in the "Cry alot" component. If I was a female in this country, I would be ashamed.

I agree... but it's not that different than the Electoral College.

As i have to do every four years.

I do know the reason. I disagree with it.

RPM didn't have the obsessive compulsion to join in on the gradeschool namecalling whinefest torch-n-pitchfork daisy-chain but called it such so he's got the wood?

Heh.

Keep that up and you'll go blind. Wait ... too late.

Please explain why it's alright for hilley to get the Michigan delegates after they were suposed to be denied and she was the only one to campaign there.

I dunno if I wanna join the party to have fun making up Sen Clinton names and telling fart jokes if you can't keep up the momentum. If that wasn't your prime intent from the start you all coulda just acted like grown-ups from the git-go. I mighta got inspired to agree with the mere merit of the argument, then.
