Obama- Count 'em as long as they don't count.

In a speech in Boca Raton, FL Hillary Clinton and her supporters called for counting the votes from FL and MI. Axelrod tells the media Obama wants to count the votes as long as they won't change anything. That pretty much sums up their campaign -- new politics of hope my ass. More like the politics of Rove and Bush.

Tell the Democratic Party Bosses we won't accept this palace coup!

Every Vote Counts!

Go Hillary!

I won't vote for Barack if he steals this election from the people.

The Democrat leaders better get this right or ELSE!!

No. Neither Clinton nor Obama can win without the votes of superdelegates.

In a case where no one candidate can win, I believe the superdelegates should reflect the popular vote, while you do not.

You are not evil for wanting the superdelegates to over-rule the will of the people (a lot of Republicans agreed with you in 2000, arguing that the popular vote doesn't matter when the Supreme Court blocked the recount).

I'm done with this issue. Reply away.

If you say that long enough perhaps others will believe you.

I believe in democracy -- the person with the most votes wins. Obviously, you do not. Ironically, the framers of the country would sympathize more with you than me, but they also didn't believe either Obama or Hillary should be able to vote, let alone run for President.

We'll just have to agree to disagree on this.

I am uncomfortable with over-ruling the will of the people; it should only be done in extreme cases. I think Gore should have been president in 2000, but that's not how our system works. The will of the people can be ignored, though it shouldn't be.

Also, I don't think Hillary is unelectable -- indeed, all the evidence shows that she is the stronger candidate. Nevertheless, I think a trained donkey would be able to beat McCain.

Neither Obama nor Clinton can get the nomination w/o superdelates. Unless there's a reason to vote otherwise, they should support the person with the most votes (probably Clinton, but we'll have to wait until next week). Unless they can argue that Clinton is unelectable, that is the only democratic way to go.

Gratz on Hillary still wanting to still fight..

Sorry, buddy, but you've got some responsibility here, too. In fact, a lot, I'd say.

Democratic principles are paramount in MY America. Not coups, and not scapegoating hate campaigns. Your leadership leads in a very problematic direction, that I don't support.
