Florida Delegates Will Be Seated

It seems Howard Dean has been listening. The Florida Delegates, as per a NY Times article posted a few minutes ago, will be seated.

How, who will get what delegates, it seems, is being worked out between the two campaigns.

Michigan, I would presume, will be negotiated, too.

Stupid Question for the DNC

I would like to ask a question... why won't the DNC let Michigan and Florida re-vote?

It is reminiscent of HRC's negative scoring of Legislators who did not vote yes for the sexual orientation only ENDA bill. They did not play by the big boys rules. Now they are being penalized.

In other words, HRC is cutting off it's nose to spite it's face. Ok, we hear how powerful you are.

The DNC is doing the same thing. Michigan and Florida... naughty, naughty, they bucked the system, thumbed their noses at the powers that be.

Rogue states.

Michigan and Florida deserve to be heard. Especially Florida. have they not been dissed enough in elections?

And with those "two states added in, Obama's total vote lead shrinks from 700,000 to about 70,000."

Yes, I am personally motivated because my candidate will benefit greatly from a re-vote. These are KEY states in a November election. I think as a party, we need to know who can win them. what the demographics are. how this plays in a national election.

As a Democrat, I would pony up some money to help pay for a re-vote in those two states.

Why isn't it happening?

I know... stupid question but... still... I want to know why?
