What is a clusterfudge? That sounds like a word Rose Nylund would use! St. Olaf story!

My thoughts......

1. Are they going to seat the Superdelgates from either state? IMO they should not....

2. All this bickering is just helping McCain

3. Why did they make the rules if they were going to break them?

I completely agree. It's also just really annoying.

Barack shouldn't have gotten any of the FL votes. He was so certain that they "should not count". The fact that we even had delegates already siding for him when they hadn't even resolved this until now grinds my gears. Why should we give anything to him when he didn't care about us? I can't stand him. I don't know what I'll do come November if he's the nominee. Actually, I do kinda have an idea of who I'll vote for.

I am not sure if I am following your comment very well.
My understanding is that FL State government is is about 2-1 Republican.
And as they lead and control the legislative policy and laws of the State, they are the ones that caused any number of problems.
So I would think any anger should be directed toward that direction.
I find it rather hard to imagine that Barack does not care about the people and population of FL let alone any State.

The amount of people saying they will switch sides will steadily decline leading up to and after the conventions. That said, I think either side would lose to support McCain once this gets up and going. Hillary would be very divisive, and Barack Obama is going to scare moderates before this is over.

But yeah, I don't think the anger regarding the nomination will carry over.

Explain to me how Florida's republican government is responsible for the Florida Democratic Party's action.

Whoever in Florida decided to switch the election date earlier should be scolded, not Barack. And I don't trust Clinton at all, she seems to switch stances a lot.

I don't know, it should be up to the state when they have their primary, that whole thing just seemed like a whine contest to me
