It’s working beautifully for the Clintons. First, the republicans in Florida add a property tax reduction to the primary ballot, bringing older dems to the polls (who support Herself), now, if Michigan revotes in June, the college kids will be gone home, reducing BO’s turnout. Can’t get any better than that, except that the snowbirds from MI who voted in FL can now support her twice…..

There should never be revotes. Too many people were able to cross the aisle and vote for McCain, which would mean that they now get to cross back and vote for a Dem in the primaries. Two votes. And allowing a Republican revote would do no good now, when everyone else has left the race. The Democrats should have to grow up and face the consequences of their choices as adults.

Florida Primary Re-Vote Nix Increases Clinton Difficulties…

The Democratic party’s monumental mess involving the Michigan and Florida delegations to the Democratic Convention is messier than ever with news that Florida won’t do a primary re-do vote via mail in ballot — news that will increase …

The democratic party in FL went in to their early primaries with their eyes wide open, knowing what the DNC said (that their delegates wouldn’t count if they did). To cry fowl and claim the voice of the people wasn’t heard is disingenous at best!

It’s like me telling my 5 year old that if he does XYZ (bad behavior), he won’t get his dessert. Then I give him his dessert anyway. What has he learned?

You said it! Here in Northern Michigan we’ve been controlled by the corridor for years and are sick of it but can’t do anything about it. There are still some who want the Great State of Superior north of Saginaw and Jennifer isn’t helping Hillary any! I hope all those who didn’t vote for DeVos are happy now.

Would God (or the messiah) BLESS the revote, or would God (or the messiah) DAMN the revote?

Perhaps Obama should consult his spiritual advisor of the last 20 years.

Ed…

“a state with a large white working-class bloc of Democratic voters”

I’m in Michigan. You must have overlooked what is driving elections in this state, it’s the I-75 corridor in SE Michigan that runs from Detroit, north thru Pontiac, Flint and ending in Saginaw. Every one of those cities would overwhelmingly support BO.

the Democrats have handled this whole election so well so far.

Just amazing, well-oiled machinery.

Didn’t Obama miss the registration date for the democratic primary? If he did, will anyone be able to register for the new vote? It’s gotta be fair to everyone, right?

Whatever they decide to do, I hope a lot of Democrats end up feeling disenfranchised. The more they’re alienated, the less likely it is that they’ll show up in November.
