Did Obama make a boo-boo re: Michigan?

[bidenista]

Should Obama have followed Clinton's lead regarding Michigan, and in so doing helped the Democratic Party avoid the unpleasant prospect of being accused of either disenfranchisement or unfairness?

[thunder rising]

1. Should Hillary have played by the same rules as everybody else instead of spitting the party over

this issue. It's all about Queen Hillary.

[AX10]

2. All of them should have campaigned in MI and FL.

Tell the national party that they are wrong and every state should get a say.

[mckeown1128]

7. They had a say but choose to break the rules...

they forfeited their say.

[niceypoo]

12. If I recall Obama RAN ADS in Florida.....

Which was against the RULES that he AGREED TO

[busymom]

3. obama whines about how superdelegates

are chosen and their influence on the nomination process...and that's the way the rules have worked. When it doesn't seem like it's tipping in his favor, he wants it changed...but when Clinton suggests that the millions of votere in FL who turnd out to vote despite being scrwed over by their party to not be disenfranchised...well...that's clearly something else.

4. Hillary shouldn't try to change the rules now.

They all knew the delegates weren't supposed to count. I bet she wouldn't
be worried about them if it wouldn't help her.

[Nimrod2005]

5. Hillary should not try to change her mind now...Everyone agreed!

[itsrobert]

6. Hillary wants to be like Bush and not play by the rules

LAME

[Indenturedebtor]

9. Um

Yep! All Hail Queen Hillary :hi:

[LittleClarkie]

8. All I have to say is I stand with Governor Dean

I stood with him when I had no candidate, and I see no reason to stop now.

[K Gardner]

10. You mean, should Obama have CHEATED like Hillary? No. He's actually Presidential material. He

wouldn't do that.

[Thrill]

11. This was all setup for her to win the nomination. They weren't expecting her to have a real

challenge. Michigan and Fl wasn't suppose to be an issue. That much is clear

[still_one]

13. They seat the MI delegates without a redo, and she wins the nomination because of it

SHE LOSES MY VOTE IN THE general election

[madrchsod]

14. hillary broke the deal

she`s not willing to spin the wheel....

[woolldog]

15. I am thoroughly

disgusted by HRC. There is nothing she won't do or say, no level to which she won't stoop to satisfy her naked lust for power.

[JackORoses]

16. Hillary will not get Michigan's delegates

If anything they will hold a Caucus in the next few months and Obama will crush her.

[scheming daemons]

17. No... being a man of his word, Obama did the right thing...

Hillary, being a person with no scruples or morals, who's word means nothing.... lied.


She signed a pledge in Iowa AND New Hampshire saying she would abide by the DNC decision to not seat delegates from those states.

To push for them to be seated now is a violation of her pledge. If she thinks those rules don't apply to her, how can we trust that she'll follow the Constitution once in office?

She took a pledge... and broke it. Will her oath of office be equally non-binding to her?


She's despicable.... and anyone who supports her going after the Michigan and Florida delegates is equally as despicable.
