That's So Hillary
Associated Press, yesterday:
Harold Ickes, a top adviser to Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's campaign who voted for Democratic Party rules that stripped Michigan and Florida of their delegates, now is arguing against the very penalty he helped pass.
In a conference call Saturday, the longtime Democratic Party member contended the DNC should reconsider its tough sanctions on the two states, which held early contests in violation of party rules. He said millions of voters in Michigan and Florida would be otherwise disenfranchised -- before acknowledging moments later that he had favored the sanctions.
A man -- or woman -- is known by the company he keeps.
Or in this case, hires.

May I offer a slight correction?

Is there anyone in Florida or Michigan who DID NOT KNOW the results of going to the polls under the edicts set out by the DNC?

If the DNC were to change the rules in the middle of the game and allow the delegates from MI and FL to be seated, the disenfranchised will be those who knowing that their votes wouldn't count didn't vote.
Those who knew their votes didn't count and voted anyway were just wasting time.

So...why isn't anyone requesting a second primary or caucus in those states where the results will be counted? Wouldn't that solve all these concerns?
