Why would the NAACP back Hillary and her effort to break rules and somehow reward her with delegates from Mi and Fl? If Obama was to win the Presidency, that might just put them the NAACP out of business. I mean their whole fight is for the advancement of colored people right? With an African American if the highest office in the country how could they continue to argue that is nation is as divided as their cause would suggest? I admit racism wouldn't end with Obama as President, but it sure would shut up some of those like the NAACP who thrive on a divided country!

Words are important! Obama is so weak, his followers have to carry him. He's their savior, so they don't mind.

Well - The Democratic Party can't afford "to carry" Obama. He can never beat McCain, not even as a democrat. We've got to drop him FAST!

Stand on your own feet Obama. Speak your own words.

Funny, no one is asking Hillary why she didn't object to the "disenfranchisement" of FL and MI immediately after the DNC's decision was made or at least prior to their primary/caucus.

Why weren't the voters in FL and MI of importance to Hillary prior to their primary/caucus taking place? Interesting isn't it?

I think they should just turn there back on Hillary Clinton for trying to destroy the party. Bill and Hillary Clinton should be sanction and no longer have a say in party business. Two people can not hold a whole party down. If this is true we are all domed as a country. We do not have kings and queens in America.

The Clinton represent what America do not need!

Charlie got Pussy Whipped by his wife.

Typical Hillary: when asked why hers was THE ONLY NAME on the Michigan ballot, she said,"Oh, what's the difference? Those votes won't count anyway." Well that was the agreement. But when she beat Nobody, she started shrilly crying for her delegates.
And in Florida, she didn't campaign? That was the agreement BUT she was there for three big fund raisers. Attention! That is campaigning. And then she was there for the Shrill Hill call for her delegates!
I can see why some people dislike her. She cheats.
And as for Rangell, he can speak for himself, but he does not speak for the NAACP, and when it is pretended that he does, that is an abuse of the office, and of the truth.
But what else -- Hillary Clinton is losing. We should expect such. In fact, she's in the game, so we should expect it.

***** Clinton to Voters: "DROP DEAD!"

Great Luck!

The other issue which hasn't really been discussed a lot is that the Registered Democrats are clearly voting in favor of Clinton.

So there is a problem, Houston.

Super Delegates are supposed to be somewhat objective, etc., and think this through.

We'll see.

You could just see a large share of Registered Democrats switch to being Registered Republicans and leave the Democrats to the Obamamaniacs.

That may be where this is headed.

Yeah, I'm going to take the word of Charles "Seal it and catch hell" Rangel.

"The rule was just arbitrarily thrown out there by Howard Dean! It isn't in the Constitution. If anything the Constitution says residents in one state can not be favored over residents of another state. So, I'd say little potentate-Dean broke Constitutional law by saying Florida and Michigan votes don't count. See ya in court Howie!"

No. And No.

Dean was one of a group of duely authorized people in the leadership of the DNC who properly set the rules of the '08 election. The methods and rules of the party in the process of choosing its nominee is entirely the party's to set.

There is nothing in the Constitution, besides the 14th amendment, that pertains in anyway to how the party runs the election. The party could decide to pick a name from a hat. Perfectly legal.

The party has the power to set the schedule. MI and FL have six months until the convention. There is no reason that they could not have a slate of delegates chosen within the sanctioned calendar and seated.

What is the problem?

Sounds like he was reasonable and then the race boys got ahold of him and did some arm-twisting.

Obama.....the candidate of change. :)

It's pretty darn obvious to me, anyway, the unfair tactics that are being used.

Obama is wrong about the role of Super Delegates and he's misinforming his minions.

AnninCA said it best below, so I am quoting here here:

"... Super Delegates are independent and were given this power precisely to make sure that the Party is protected for Independents swooping in and taking over.

They are supposed to be independent and vote their conscience based on what is best for the party.

Obama's chanting masses who call this unAmerican, etc., are, in fact, behaving exactly like Third Party people the role was designed to protect us from.

He has deliberately twisted the definition of the role in order to undermine her firm support from Super Delegates. ... But make no mistake. He's misinforming people daily on this role of Superdelegates."

The super delegates need to set something right for working people who did not get a chance for their vote to count in a primary (the caucases were simply overrun by Obama voters.) If the Democratic Party is going to keep the working class members, the super delegates need to help us. Out of the two candidates left standing, Hillary represents the working class. I'm working class and I do know we like Hillary. I feel like we're getting bullied.

Please do it to keep the party together and win in November.

Uh, Oh! How do you spell trouble in 2008? O-B-A-M-A

Not a dem that I am particularly proud of....
