th whole problem in this situation is that the dem party in fflorida and michagan was told when they decided to go against the party party guide lines and hold their caucusus early that the penalty is that their votes would not count. correct me if im wong here but both states went to clinton. now she is trailing in the polls and the race and it looks more and more everyday obama is gointo win this. andlow and ehold now he wants to count them votes. o course she does. and of course obama with his narrow lead doesnt want them counted.

rules are rules and penaltys are penltys. you break the rules you have to pay the penalty. the voters knew goin into it that their party broke the rules and their votes wouldnt count.

the eay olution to this in my opinion would be to do away with this system and just have all the states vote on the same day. problem solved

please forgive any misspellings my keyboard is acting up
