Yeah Florida and Michigan.

Count the votes!

Is she stupid? The issues have already been discussed. We know where they stand on those issues and their positions. Texas and Ohio Dems. had a chance to almost guarantee a Dem. victory come Nov. but keeping this election going is DUMB. At this point, it doesnt matter WHOM gets the nomination, as NIETHER ONE WILL WIN.

Oh and S.B. you throw in Michigan and Florida and that is only adding fuel to the fire. Not only will the supporters of a particular candidate not support the other candidate, but they will vote for McCain, just to poke a finger in the eye to the eventual Dem. nominee.

Nope, Dems blew it last night. At least this next time around, the nation has a chance to elect someone with REAL national security and foreign affairs experience.

Screw Florida & Michigan. They broke the rules...

If you liked the way the last 8 years have gone, vote for McMore-War. If you think this country can do better, vote for the democrat in November. CASE CLOSED...

There should definitel be a re-do. Both candidates can campaign. I just want to point out that Hillarys win are proving to be nothing on her delegate count. She won Texas, yet Obama gets most of the delegates. ALSO, TODAY ALONE, OBAMA GAINED 3 SUPERDELEGATES AND I'M VISIONING BILL RICHARDSON WILL FOLLOW OR SO I'VE HEARD FROM SOURCES. That being said, this race is long from over.

US has a great chance in Obama, let us pray for him to win this process. With god help he will have a very good VP and will get the US back on track by ending honorably the war in Irak, sustaining the global war on terrorism and put the US in the leadership role in the world. Honestly becaue of their long life in DC McCain or Hillary are very much in the "Washington way" and do not understand the world at all.

Congratulations Speaker Pelosi, finally some leadership. She needs to hammer that message on superdelegate judgement. That's what this is going to come down to. Here's my judgement. Hillary Clinton for President. Barack Obama for Vice President. John McCain for Retirement! Go Democrats!!

There is no way this will be resolved without the superdelegates input. Neither candidate will get enough pledged delegates to get the nomination. It will no doubt depend on what happens between now and the convention. Is one of the candidates being dogged by scandel? What do the current polls say in regards to who can beat McCain? One of the things Hillary currently has in her favor is the fact that she one the states she needed to win. Obama won republican states that aren't going to vote democratic anyway.

My question to speaker Pelosi is, why do the democratic party even have super-delegates? More republicans have won the white house in the last 40 years than democrats and they do not have this superdelegate system, so maybe you just ought to do away with it. If I feel that my vote would be overturned by superdelegates, why should I even want to vote in the first place.

Florida delegates should be counted. All candidates were on the ballot, and not one of them actually campaigned here. Clinton won the state. Floridians watched the campaign on television or read about it from whatever source they chose, so to deny their votes because their election came too early in the election cycle is ridiculous. Our votes more than likely would have been the same even a month later. Count our votes! For Howard Dean to make a stupid decision like this is beyond me. The Michigan situation is slightly different. Not everyone had their name on the ballot, so the results of voter's preferences are not truly known, but Florida had everyone's name on the ballot. The results are what they are. Obama lost in Florida, and he would lose in Florida again. Democratic voters voted in Florida and their votes should be counted.

You cannot change the rules to suit you. If Obama had won Florida, Clinton supporters would threaten lawsuits from here to eternity at the mere mention of seating the delegates.

The People Have Spoken.

Now, Lawyers and Superdelegates will make the Real Decision.

PELOSI'S THOUGHT was all wrong again in her estimation that last tuesday we democrats could have choosen our nominee.

She is for Barack, not for surprising.
The Republicans in the lower have to
say on her;though she proclaimed to the
House Speaker to get support from the Rpublicans and putting off the table
re impeachment of George Bush. That is why, she failed to uster support among the Republicans from the very beginning.
She should be replaced if not resign as speaker.

DYNAMICS OF DEMOCRATIC EXPERIENCE.
The brewing rivalries between Barack and Hillary for their Party's presidential nominee showcase to the whole world the
beauty of American politics as our greatest democratic tradition.

We must be glad that the primary election will be extended until the full exercise of the recognized process be given its natural course. Let the super delegates decide as render theri judgment as they were conceived adn entrenched in the selection process.
Do not short-circuit it. Otherwise, it will be a precedent-setting undemocratic decision by the elders in the Party.

The longer the primary election the better. It will gather more new registrants to the Party and radicalizzd them to participate in this once in every four-years of exercising their sacred right of suffrage.

The candidacy of Senator Obma is a blessing to the Democratic Party. Judging from the turn outs of voters
since Iowa up tp last tusday's election, it was heaavy with high-particaption among the new registrants. Thank you on this Mr. Senat5or froom Illinois. This is your landmark contribution in this era in our national life.

To be continued...

Emo - the SD's have nothing to do with congressional races. They serve a very valid purpose and the RNC has a similar system. You can get all the answers you need by simply visiting the DNC's website or watching the SDs explain on the news channels. Suppose there was a major catastrophe or a candidate is indicted between the primaries and the convention? Without SDs the party would have no nominee. Suppose the voter turnout is so low that a select few voters were able to choose a nominee who is a mobster? Without SDs there is no recourse. The SDs cast votes for the non-voting electorate. The caucus system is much cheaper for the states who choose to use it because they have no money to pay for primaries. Yet, the results are not reflective of the will of the voters so the SDs offset the disparity with their judgement. The more voters participate (many states had very low turnout comparitively), the less impact the SDs have. Their super status is actually a part of a system that is balanced. Revising rules for this election is not an option or the entire election is tainted and unfair to the candidates and the voters.

Nancy Pelosi: do you have any idea how many democratic voters despise the Clintons?

You are a national leader, a senior democrat, and are in the perfect position to stop the earth from being scorched by Hillary and Bill. Take away the leverage they are attempting to artificially create.

Why? Because Hillary on the ticket, top or bottom, will set your party back for a generation.

You will have far more fun working with Barack rather than suffering the Clintons' boots on your neck for the rest of your term.

Seize this window of opportunity. Surface this with them in private, surround yourself with party leaders, but please don't wait until the war irrevocably splits the party.

Please.

We have found the division in this country, it's all in the Democratic party.
