Re:Florida And Michigan
Instead of punishing the voters of Florida and Michigan the party should have punished the legislators who were responsible for pushing up the dates by withholding campaign funds...That seems more equitable than punishing the voters...

This isn't the Army or junior varsity basketball where you have to do one hundred extra push ups because your fellow soldier or team mate screwed up...

1. Perky had a good idea, withhold super delegates from FL.
That way leadership rather than the voters are punished.

2. I like that idea.

Let the voters count, screw the leaders.

However, that should have been decided before the votes were cast. And the Candidate's should have been allowed to campaign.

I just don't know how things could be made right now.
