I realize that not everyone who voted Uncommitted was for Obama, but with Edwards & Richardson endorsing him, it seems proper to let him have the entire uncommitted share. <BR/><BR/>I'm going to throw a bloody fit If MI tries the early primary stunt again,next time around.mrslilypondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09055767367851384874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-3906072144637440132008-06-03T15:09:00.000-05:002008-06-03T15:09:00.000-05:00Hi Mrs LilypondYes, I realise there's more than on...Hi Mrs Lilypond<BR/><BR/>Yes, I realise there's more than one way of looking at it, and it was a difficult decision the DNC had to make - no solution would have pleased all. But all the uncommited votes were not necessarily for Obama, and DNC didn't deduct a small proportion to cover that aspect (that was how I saw it as seeming to be a little unfair). Then they took 4 delegates from HRC and gave them to BO - which made no sense at all to me.<BR/><BR/>As you say, it was f...ed up from the start, so it was virtually impossible to unf... it on Saturday. :-)Twilighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14138621610593773784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-81540720090483014622008-06-03T14:50:00.000-05:002008-06-03T14:50:00.000-05:00I live in Michigan, and I honestly don't believe O...I live in Michigan, and I honestly don't believe Obama received special treatment in dividing up our delegates. You see when we had our primary (and f***d up by having it early imo) the Michiganders that supported Obama , were encouraged to vote uncommitted, that ended being 40% of the vote. The way, the DNC split up the delegates seems fair in my opinionmrslilypondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09055767367851384874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-90984027454356808152008-06-03T08:11:00.000-05:002008-06-03T08:11:00.000-05:00WWW, AN and AnonymousHi Y'all!Thanks for popping i...WWW, AN and Anonymous<BR/><BR/>Hi Y'all!<BR/><BR/>Thanks for popping in to comment.<BR/>I'm hoping HRC will win S.Dakota with another wide margin, and keep the margin in Montana narrow.<BR/><BR/>It's said she already leads the popular vote, which though it isn't the deciding factor simply HAS to count for something. She won't walk away from this, while there's a way to keep fighting.<BR/><BR/>She'll probably suspend her campaign and not concede, so that she's still available should anything nasty come out of the woodwork for BO. And that is a distinct possibility. Lots of time still to passs before August, and the nominee isn't official until then.Twilighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14138621610593773784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-47791778033360869892008-06-03T03:52:00.000-05:002008-06-03T03:52:00.000-05:00I hope she wins both contests tommorow.http://mode...I hope she wins both contests tommorow.<BR/><BR/>http://modernvedicastrology.blogspot.com/2008/05/trouble-looms-for-obama-campaign.htmlAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-35994136929073476942008-06-03T03:49:00.000-05:002008-06-03T03:49:00.000-05:00Well, I for one predicted it would go right to the...Well, I for one predicted it would go right to the finish.
