Stumper : Why Florida and Michigan Won't Matter in the End
There's the stubborn little fact that Clinton completely opposed recognizing Michigan and Florida until after the primaries--i.e., when she realized she might need their delegates to win the nomination. "It's clear that this election they're having [in Michigan] is not going to count for anything," she said during an interview with New Hampshire Public Radio in October 2007. She wasn't alone. Two months earlier, Clinton adviser Harold Ickes actually voted to strip the rogue states of their delegates as a member of the DNC's Rules and Bylaws committee--"to prevent the gaming of the system," he said. Later than fall, Patti Solis Doyle, then Clinton's campaign manager, pledged not to compete in either contest--and was unequivocal as well.

She could have cared less about Florida voters in the beginning of her campaign when she agreed then to throw our votes to the wayside. This gerrymandering has cost her this election. Now our votes should count? Now she's gerrymandering (again) in an attempt to get our votes to count.
How many voters in Florida did not even go vote because they knew their vote wouldn't count. Since the outcome turned out that it would have been to be favorable to her, now she thinks they should count. If they can't do a revote, they should not count. How many voters didn't turn out because they had advance notice that their vote would not count. One would never know. What if those same voters that didn't turn out would have voted for Obama? This woman is monster. She's worse than Bush. Talk about trying to rig an election! This equates to election fraud in my book. Those votes should not count now. Not at this point. No ma'am. |

...what I don't understand, is why so much is placed on who votes when....but then I think I do...Is it because we think some voters will vote based on who won in earlier priamries? That's the only sence I can get out of it...

Well the votes should have counted in the beginning as to turn out unbiased voting. The news hit the papers that the votes wouldn't count before the voting began. Therefore, the votes should not count unless they do a revote and there is not time for that now. It's akin to election fraud if not IS election fraud. If Hillary thinks those votes should count she is perpetrating election fraud. |

And yes it is too late for unbiased voting. You are correct. They should continue to move forward. Her camp whining about Florida and Michigan just goes to show you how undignified she really is. I want a pres with some dignity. |
