She said, Michigan didnot matter. That was before she was losing.


Now, she wants to set up a scam election backed by two very rich donors (old friends)

She wants to make it so that independents can’t vote and schedule the election at a time when college students are on break.

Dukie:

By good move to you mean deceitful?

That is Hillary Clinton alright.
 
I've said it befor and will say it a gain,The Clinton will do anything to win and that meants killing if needed
 
So much for all of this "every vote should count" rhetoric spouted off by many Democrats, such as Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton, in 2000.

I guess Jackson and Sharpton and others like them only believe that when it works in their favor, eh?
 
I think it's time someone sat her down and told her she don't
make the rules and that Florida and Michigan knew they were breaking the rules so learn to live with the results.

Even the most ardent kool-aid drinker has a hard time justifying disenfranchising voters after the BS they tried to pull in 2000, and lost.
 
Probably because Democrats hate democracy. "No Taxation Without Representation!" is what colonists yelled in Boston in 1765.

Currently Democrat politicians are willfully ignoring the votes of 5,100,000 people in Florida and Michigan. Those votes came from people who went out of their way to exercise their constitutional granted right to representation.

The leaders of Democrat party are refusing to change their own new devious rules to accommodate voters in both Florida and Michigan unless the people give up their previous votes.

Howard Dean (leader of the Democrat party) is urging to void all votes in Florida and Michigan :

She desperately needs the delegates. This is the only way she can beat Obama besides cheating. She is the underdog. This woman will do anything to win. In August she said FL and MI didn't matter now she's singing a different tune. The governors of these two states didn't follow the rules and moved their primaries dates up.

Please don't use that tired excuse. Bush cheated his way into office with his brother help. They (The power to be) discriminated against blacks and other people of color. Who had the proper I.D. but was turned away from many voting stations. The DNC made this decision last August and Hilary and Obama agreed to it. These two states didn't follow the rules but yet 48 states did. They should be punish for not follow the rules and maybe in four years. They will get it right. Why are these two state more special than the 48? I am so tired of FL being in the mix. I don't trust that state. If the voters are so upset, then they shouldn't re-elect their governors who didn't follow the rules and move their primary dates up.
 
I would guess you are not a voter from FL or MI. Otherwise, you would think this was a pretty good idea. Imagine if your governor and State Legislature had pulled this in your state. How would you feel knowing that you were stripped of the opportunity to be part if the U.S. selecting the candidate to run for president from your party? Be honest now.

You say it is at a time when college students are on break. They were also on break in Iowa. Obama talked them into coming back for the vote. If you give it a little thought instead of just attacking, how long do you think it takes to set something like a statewide vote up? A couple of days??

Consider this. The DNC has to fix this situation, or the whole primary process of 2008 will be a bitter joke and the party is going to loose a whole bunch of people. Believe it or not, almost half the democrats are actually for Hillary. But, I guess since you don't even care if two states have lost their voting rights, then you really don't care about the half that is pulling for Hillary either. Obama doesn't appear to care about their voting rights either. And, if she loses by the amount of delegates from those two states, there will be a big, big hullabaloo for a long time to come.
 
So, what's wrong with that? All Americans have a right to have their vote count. Are you anti-American?
Dean should not have agreed to the date change to begin with. Now they have no other alternative than to break that stupid rule. The republicans don't have it & all of their votes counted. Clinton won those states fair & square. If the tables were turned, I'm sure Obama would be fighting to have them counted.
 
The DNC stated what the penalty would be prior to MI and FL setting their new primary dates in stone- they knew the consequences.
You are absolutely correct that it is whining- by democrats in MI, FL, and Hillary supporters. All Dem candidates agreed not to campaign in the two states, Edwards and Obama even took an honorable, extra step. They did nothing at all in MI, thus their names did not appear on ballot; Something Hillary did not do.
It doesn't surprise me that Hillary and her supporters are whining about it, that's all they can do.
What is surprising to me is that DNC leadership is so spineless!!! It's also rather obvious, to me at least, that DNC leaders are not all that worried about voters in the two states. Party leaders are afraid of Hillary and Bill Clinton!!!!!! Does anyone really think that a majority of Dems in the two states will vote Republican in the national election if their delegates aren't counted at the party convention....please.

I am an independent, and was very much in the Obama camp, but I cannot/will not support a party that doesn't even have the stones to stand by their own rules!!
 
She found that she won many of the delegates in Michigan and because they moved their primaries up early, they forfeited them. Well, she now needs them to win. It is a good move on her part.

Go McCain!!!
