let's watch as clinton starts flapping her wings on this one. florida let down its citizens just so it could try to get ahead:
She’s tried to seat the Florida and Michigan delegates, claiming that she won. Those states made a greedy power play by moving up their primaries, breaking the Democratic National Convention rules. Both Clinton and Obama and the parties agreed not to campaign in those states after the Democratic National Convention stripped those states of delegates.
Furthermore, Obama’s name wasn’t on the Michigan ballot.
As Obama said, even his six-year old daughter could figure out that awarding the delegates to Clinton wasn’t fair.In an interview with NPR’s Steve Inskeep, Obama said: “Our position consistently has been that the Michigan and Florida delegations should be seated [at the Democratic National Convention] and that we should come up with a system that is fair to all the parties involved.”
But Clinton isn’t about fairness or what’s right. She’s about winning no matter what the cost.
