I also find it funny(and sad) that Dean is pressuring the superdelegates to make a decision on who to support so that he doesn't have to make a decision about what to do about Florida and Michigan. Neal

Now I lay this whole problem in Howard Dean's lap. If he provided adequate leadership, I don't think we would be in the place we are at now in this regard At least the Dems can feel good about not electing Dean President with these super leadership abilities. Thank heavens that his tired, worn vocal cords gave out at just the right moment to produce that strange scream.

>>I will respectfully disagree with some of what you say. Yes the rules were known. But how does this whole thing play out for the voters in Michigan and Florida? To me, it looks like the Dems are disenfranchising their voters in those states. And if memory serves me correctly, it was Obama's people who were the most obstructionist in reaching some type of compromise to allow a solution to the whole debacle. I wonder if that will wear thin with the voters in Michigan and Florida?<< Neal - It's not a good situation for the Michigan and Florida voters, but they shouldn't blame Howard Dean and the national party. They should blame their own damned state party leaders who thought their states should have more say in the selection process. They're the ones who broke the rules, knowing full well that they were doing so. - Allen
