73. I think we're witnessing the DLC & DNC vying for power over the party
Both state party leaders in Florida & Michigan are DLC and I've thought throughout this primary season that this is a battle for power over the Democratic party. Obama is NOT DLC, Hillary is, and throughout the Clinton presidency the DLC has made huge inroads into power positions within the Democratic party. Pelosi, Reid, Hoyer, Rahm, all of them controlling the party, acting & voting against Democratic principles. There's a reason why Obama is so organized and has become a powerful machine to go up against the Clinton monopoly. Obama is the DNC's candidate and Hillary is DLC. I for one am glad to see it happening now rather than this Fall.

Florida voters should be angry with their DLC leaders who refused money from the DNC that could have remedied the situation. Being angry with the national party is exactly what the DLC likes...dividing our party is what they do.
