The DNC has the right to make and enforce its own rules. Florida and Michigan did not abide by those rules and, unfortunately, rank and file Democrats won't get a voice at the convention. It was a stupid move on the part of their respective state legislatures and, I hope, one that won't be repeated. This is not a "whim" on the part of the DNC -- if they allow every state to set its own rules, what's to prevent South Dakota from allotting itself 10,000 delegates?

Let me reiterate that I hope the DNC will allow for a state caucus so that these voters can be represented.
