The irony of this issue is:

If the two state had stayed where they were, they would have been a HUGE factor in this primary season.

The people in that state should first look to those STATE officials when assessing blame.

There are hundreds of thousands of people in those states that did not vote, because they knew that their votes would not count! What is the point in making rules if you are going to change them later? This so 3rg grade. You dont get a do over. I made no calls to folks in MI and FL. SBO did no campaigning in the states so it was not a true election. It is just bull ish. I am done worrying about her campaign. I wish her the best in her future, but this here is a wrap!

"I need you to remind them that in the Democratic Party, we count every vote."

-Bullshit.

They haven't done it since 2000.

Hillary is "campaigning" for the Vice Presidency.

If we recall, she campaigned as the candidate entitled to the nomination.

Since that hasn't worked, she's now campaigning as the candidate entitled to the second slot of the ticket.

Entitlement is her MO.

Just when you thought Hillay would play fair, up comes this email. To make it worse, she backdoored everybody on friday with her Blogger Conference Call, in which at NO time does she mention Breaking the Rules..

To make it worse, she makes it more then clear that WOMEN are being disrespected in the campaign b/c they support her. Its clear that whoever gave Hillary the "call to cool it" as many have suggested, she just ignored..

Here's the Blogger Call"

If she believed Michigan and Florida were o important why did she sign off on on NOT campaigning there. They broke the rules- end of story. I believe Terry, her campaign spokesperson and former head of the DNC- the one Tim Russert called out on meet the press allowed for 1/2 of their vote to count. So there is a precedent for the states not getting fully seated.

If you break the rules, deal with it.

Just my two cents about Florida: there’s a ton of speculation about demographics, but all political campaigns have limited resources, and the Obama campaign played by the rules. The Obama campaign didn’t go after the popular vote in California. They didn’t go after the votes in Florida. They played by the rules and tried to win delegates.

I’m not saying that it’s silly to speculate about demographics. But even after vicious assaults by the Clinton machine, Obama has proven that he can reach out to all kinds of demographics. I’m sure that if he chooses his running mate wisely, he’ll have no “demographic problem”. I just want to come down hard on the idea that some demographic groups are “forever closed” to Obama.

Well, now we know why Hillary Clinton had such unusually high negative ratings across the entire country, and that was BEFORE the Democratic primaries!

I get the feeling that many superdelegates are beginning to realize that the party does not need toxic Hillary, not as Vice President, not anywhere. I can just imagine what some of those superdelegates are thinking as they watch this mess unfold: they want it to be over, just like we do.

the one issue i am actually sympathetic to hllary about on the merits is florida. it is a huge state and she has clear advantages with the demographics. michigan is not the same. both in the way it voted with only her name on the ballot and in that the demographics and polls are much more even. this will not fly.
