Well, Hillary did a fundraiser in Florida that was pre-scheduled and pre-approved, she did not campaign there. This was poured over when it happened, and even though people tried to spin it as "campaigning", it was not denounced as such in any real sense other than anti-clinton spin.
Neither here nor there though, as this whole issue should have pissed off Florida and Michigan democrats when the DNC first declared them invisible in the first place! Problem is, nobody expected there to be a close race.
I'm so tired of the press annointing nominees it's not even funny. Obama should quit, Clinton should quit, Ron Paul should quit, Huckabee should quit, Romney should quit. Fuck them! It's a RACE to win votes, leave it the hell alone!
Now yesterday, several networks ran banners saying "Superdelegates vs popular vote?" and shit like that. Well let me say this, the superdelegate process is part of the process! So stop whining about it and trying to make it a story now. Some people say that superdelegates should vote the same way that the popular vote went down in their state/county/district. What? Then why were superdelegates invented? For only those rare cases of an exact tie? No. They were invented to exercise *their own* judgment.
I even saw some commentor last night on CNN saying that if the superdelegates in a area that Obama won the peoples vote, voted against Obama, that african americans would revolt! What the fuck? That superdelegate was INVENTED and picked for the very fact that their judgment was considered good enough to do the job. Frankly, it has zero to do with who is popular, who the people voted for, what race or gender they are, or if they're fat or dwarf.
How dare these assholes try to tell people how to vote, who to vote for, who should quit, what is an "attack", what is "negative".. For christs sake, some morons think that Clintons stupid 3am phone ad is a NEGATIVE attack ad! How so? It's an ad where Clinton tries to say that she is the best to be answering that phone. OOoooooooooooo what a horrible negative attack ad.. how nasty is she, what a bitch. God these pundits make me crazy.
The democratic nomination process is what it is. If Michigan and Florida governments want to go ahead and hold new primaries and/or caucuses, GOOD FOR THEM because the issue is the millions of regular, real people who's votes have been cast aside because their states GOVERNMENTS fucked up! So this is maybe the one time in our lives when a government fucks up, a government does a do-over, and the people get the benefit! Unreal that there would be opposition to it.
Ahh that felt pretty good
