    If you cannot refute my posts, then you attempt to stifle and limit my speech. Sounds a lot like the Obama supporters' efforts to make Clinton quit

    Here is Hillary decimating Obama. Tell me Obama supporters, why is Obama trying to not allow democratic voters in Michigan and Florida to have their votes be counted? Why is he stripping that right from them? Think about that before you cast your votes, delegates and superdelegates.

    I just want D&D to be D&D, not "relentless whoring by inarticulate swindlers who make no attempt to even read about that which they post".

    I mean good grief. It's turning the D&D into a debate with O'Reilly. Everyone with a clue or an opinion gets cutoff or shouted over and the subject is neverendingly turned into a game of "who can refute me easily for the 100,000th time?"


    Yuck.

    The worst part? They get quoted all the bloody time, making my ignore lists considerably less useful.

    Again, typical liberal self-righteousness thinking that they are the only ones "with a clue". :rolleyes:

    As FB has stated on many occations, it would be helpful if you paid attention.

    Those states were told that their delegates would not count if they violated Dem rules and moved thier primaries. Both campaigs signed off on the rules and agreed to abide by the changes. Obama is playing by the rules and it is Clinton that is trying to chage them after the fact.

    She's also been saying that pledged delegates can switch their vote too. While it's obviously within the rules, it's underhanded and rotten to keep trying to convince these delegates to throw the will of the people out like that.

    Again, with new information (how close the race is), it's not an unreasonable thing to do to revisit a decision. Recent polls show McCain doing better vs Obama than vs Clinton....something the liberals might consider

    Not if new information has surfaced since the vote was held. The Wright mess happened after most states voted, and would have changed many people's votes, as evidenced by polling done right after the Wright incident

    Doesn't matter about your new information. The rules were set and both campaigns agreed to them. You don't change the rules in the middle of the game.

    or at least not when they don't benefit your candidate?

    The fact that the race is so close was not anticipated beforehand. Would it not be a shame for the voters of Michigan and Florida to have no say in the democratic primary?

    I'm sure Hillary appreciates your concern! The only reason you care about this is because you know that McCain will be trounced by Obama and the only sliiver of a chance for McCain is if Hillary is the nominee.

    next

    Looks like Obama would get trounced by McCain, according to recent polling

    Leave it to the Dems to make silly primary rules to begin with. This is their own doing.

    Yep that poll was included in my link. Much smaller sample size than the Rasmussen report that was just released

    When five polls show a consistent result, and you have one outlier -- especially one with a checkered history like Rasmussen -- my money is on the five polls that are very similar.
