2. You're right, of course. The FL & MI primaries were held but the delegates not seated.
I agree with you that the fault lies with the state parties.

Howard Dean was a key player in the decision to enforce the rules laid down by the DNC regarding when states could hold their primares. Do you think Terry McCauliff would have done the same if the decision would hurt Hillary Clinton.

I think that Clinton would have won Florida, given its demographis no matter what, Michigan's a differenct story. Obama might have made inroads here at least in the delegate count if not an outright victory.
