Why didn't the Michigan Obama voters vote "uncommitted" as they were instructed?
At the time the Michigan primaries were held there was no problem letting the nomination process end in Denver. What's the big rush?
Clip:
If "uncommitted" receives at least 15 percent in a congressional district or statewide, Brewer said, delegates will be sent to Denver where any candidate -- including Clinton -- can compete for them.
Hillary thought she would have it all wrapped up and she would not need the non compliant states. Only after she started losing, did "all the votes" need to count! She needs to look at reality. I worry about her state of mind that she cannot see the end when it is staring her in the face!
Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Rodham Clinton on Thursday rejected a compromise plan to seat Michigan's delegates to the national convention that would give 69 delegates to Clinton and 59 to Barack Obama.
"This proposal does not honor the 600,000 votes that were cast in Michigan's January primary. Those votes must be counted," Clinton spokesman Isaac Baker said.
I can't believe this. Hillary can break all the rules and the DNC will still kiss her butt and call it ice cream. She must have some dirt on these people. God bless Obama for going along with this crap. He has said he'll support whatever the DNC decides, even though the DNC decided that FL and MI don't count!
Clinton Rejects Latest Michigan Delegate Plan - Yahoo! News (broken link)
Michigan and Florida delegates should be counted as they are, or they should have a re-vote. I think Hillary Clinton was right to reject that plan.... that was not a reflect of the voters. I also would like to mention that Barack Obama didnt follow through the rules too well as many may have liked. He keep his name on the Florida ballot, and even ran ads. So much for new politics.... I'll say.
