too much contradiction. The DNC is not conspiring against
Hillary, there is not some group of rogue Democratic Senators out to
get Hillary, and Hillary said not one word about FL or MI until after
she knew she'd need their votes (for this reason I find her new role as
"champion of the disenfranchised" self-serving and disingenuous to say
the least).
There are many in the democratic party who think Obama was a mistake and
had not been properly vetted before he was pushed into the arena.
That is a problem now for the DNC and for the party at large.
So, what you're saying is that some voters will not get the
candidate of
their choice, right? Again, how is that
different from any other primary race even run? How would it be
different if it was Hillary winning and Obama supporters not getting
their choice? What, exactly, is
the DNC supposed to do about that? I'd really love to hear the
speech Howard
Dean would have to make to sell a superdelegate coup.
"We thank all of you new voters who participated, but
you're just too damn stupid and you picked the wrong guy! We'll just fix that problem for you and
nominate Hillary instead. No harm, no
foul, right? Really, we know what's
best for you. We know you'll be happy as lifelong Democrats. Thanks again, and we look
forward to seeing you at the polls!"
