if it benefited their candidate.

The notion that large numbers of DUers are in actual favor of disenfranchising Florida voters strikes me as absurd.

They should be seated. No election has occurred there yet, all the names are on the ballot.

People are upset about this simply because it stands to benefit Clinton, based on the polling. But since nobody has an unfair advantage in Florida, you're just objecting to honoring the will of the electorate.

You think it hurts your candidate and benefits another. And how is that any different from what you're saying about Clinton? You're playing politics, too. You're trying to find an advantage for your guy and a disadvantage for the other guy.

The fake outrage over this is ridiculous.
