Poll question: Florida Democrats: Are you READY?!!!
Without them campaigning there, are Floridian Democrats ready to take the bull by the horns and come out to vote for your candidate tomorrow?!!!!

1. I hope the Obama and Edwards supporters...
...realize that they need to go out and vote.

Expect anything from the Clinton camp, including cheating.

I really hope the Obama and Edwards supporters are planning
on voting.

Someone tell me they are.

5. I'm sorry you feel that way
But if I thought they were cheating I wouldn't support Hillary. And, it saddens me you feel that way about Hillary. :(

4. Those delegates WILL be in the convention
especially if Hillary wins. She and Bill will see to it, if they need the delegates.

So, pretend it counts, and vote.

6. Wow.
so you think if Hillary wins the delegates will be seated at the convention, but if Obama or Edwards wins, they won't?

7. If Obama wins he won't seat the delegates if they put him back into contention. Otherwise...
...ALL candidates will seat the delegates if they have a majority win. It would be insane not to.

8. Two reasons
First, Hillary would get more delegates. She already won MI, and the oddsmakers seem to have her winning FL (of course that could change).

Second, I'm just guessing that Clintons would be more adept at manipulating the DLC/DNC powers-that-be, increasing the odds that the outcasts are admitted to the party.

11. The difference between Michigan and Florida
At least there are still other candidates on the ballot in Florida.

Rules are rules, and the DLC in both states broke the rules. And if they counted Florida, they would have to count Michigan, but counting Michigan would be completely unacceptable under any circumstances, as Hillary refused to remove herself from the ballot when the other candidates did.
