Ickes just supported the half vote. He'll feel the Clinton wraith later!

No, I assume that he wouldn't be doing this if the Clinton team hadn't already agreed.


So Hillary's "Do Not Surrender!" policy is all BS for political purposes? NO WAY!

Michigan proposal:  Clinton 69 (34.5 votes), Obama 59 (29.5 votes).  This is a vehement Clinton woman proposing this.  May not be as bloody as Sam expects.

The Clinton people need to shut the f**ck up. They are not coming off well
I suppose disenfranchisement of 850,000 people is coming off well?

You need to stop posting. You're embarrassing yourself.
You're the one embarrassing yourself. You are officially joining a camp of not counting votes. You're unAmerican. We don't disenfranchise people in America. I will give leeway with Michigan, but absolutely not for Florida.

Democrats can no longer claim to have any moral authority over voting rights.

Apparently they negotiated and compromised on Michigan.  This isn't their first choice, but it appears to be what all the Clinton people are going with -- Dan Fowler (SC-Clinton) agrees.  Harold Ickes evidently disagrees.  Dan Fowler loves him anyway.

So, in the end, Florida may have been more controversial than Michigan.  Fancy that.

I have a strange feeling that the members of half-seated delegations are going to bring megaphones to the convention and boo through them when Obama gets nominated.

Follow the rules and we count your votes. Kthnxbye.

And I'm just shocked to see a Clinton supporter using Republican talking points. Shocked I say.

Florida supers have already been assigned half votes in the previous resolution.  I'm unclear on what happens to the Michigan supers under the compromise currently being debated.

You're in the same camp that he was in in 2000. So I don't know why you're asking me.

All Florida and Michigan had to do was follow the rules set forth by the DNC and we never would have had to deal with crap. This whole "changing the rules in the middle of the game" by the Clinton campaign has been disgusting.

By the way, if anyone needed any more proof, the Clintons are no longer in control of the Democratic Party.

They don't seem to care about other people anyway.

It's sad that Clinton chooses to surround herself with horrible people like Harold Ickes, Mark Penn and Terry McAuliffe. I hope these people are never again in a position of power.

Ickes says that the Clinton campaign reserves the right to take the Michigan issue to the credentials committee.

You're using republican tactics of disenfranchisement to win an election and Obama has been using their tactics, and so has Hillary, this whole campaign.

I will support Obama as a nominee. Until he's the nominee, I will fight for my choice.
