Mounting Evidence Super Delegates, Not Voters Will Decide
Quote:
For two reasons... 1) two of the superdelegates?... William Jefferson Clinton and Hillary campaign advisor, former Senate leader Tom Daschle... That's right!...Of Obama is ahead before the superdelegates are counted, there's a possiblity he will lose the nomination based on the votes from Hillary's own husband and members of her own staff... Democracy in action!... ![]() 2) If there was some change to disallow the supers with the idea that only regular deleates from the states are to decide, Clinton will declare that didn't happen unless the DNC includes the two states (Florida & Michigan) that were being penalized by the DNC for moving their primary up against the Democrat's wishes...Hillary chose to campaign (and win) in those two states while the other candidates were loyal to the party and stayed away...She is attempting to have their delegates count toward the totals, and she could easily say that all the delegates weren't counted if those two states are denied...

Does the phrase "SELECTED NOT ELECTED" finally have a TRUE meaning now? Only the democratic logic at work again.

Whether the percentage of them making a difference is 99% or .001%, the fact that they have ANY ability to make a difference should be of great concern to the democratic process... Just the fact that the system is set up which includes a way for a candidates's husband and campaign staff members to vote as delegates instead of the average voter should be quite disturbing...

Does the phrase
"SELECTED NOT ELECTED" finally have a TRUE meaning now? A Democrat lie about republicans that is about to be TRUE about democrats. There is NO basis in facts for the term as it is used about GW just like "mission accomplished" only the IGNORANT are fooled by them.

I think there may be segments of government that would want that, but I don't consider that as the government as a whole...or even a majority...
