Superdelegates know better -- but can Obama resist this pressure, while standing on the side of disenfranchisement? "Seizing on her Pennsylvania primary victory, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton and her surrogates are renewing their efforts to have the disputed Michigan and Florida convention delegates seated and pushing the argument that she now leads in the total number of votes cast when the tallies in those two states are included," John M. Broder writes in The New York Times.


But Howard Dean is bravely pressing on, determined to disenfranchise Florida and Michigan, and select the winner of pledged delegates over the (probable) winner of the popular vote.

This just 8 years after the huge Democratic whining about the "stolen" Florida election of 2000.

Poetic justice, indeed.
