Boondoggle

115:1. Lets repeat that, 115:1 for changing the date. The DNC rules panel kinda has a point here. The 115:1 vote isn't exactly what I'd call "robust opposition". In fact, some might even say it was along the lines of active collaboration.

Remember that - active collaboration, because now we see this story where the Tampa Tribune is trying to lay the blame on republicans in the Florida legislature:

...Last spring, the Florida Legislature, dominated by Republicans, voted to hold the state primary Jan. 29, regardless of the parties' rules, making Florida the largest state to vote early.
Some Democratic legislators favored the move as well...

Some Democratic legislators" -- that's an interesting way to put it when the vote was 115:1. "some" == "all but one".
