Congratulations to Clinton and her supporters
After a grueling and hard fought battle in Florida, she miraculously pulled out a stunning victory.

Savor today, as it was a huge victory for the Clinton camp. :patriot:

6. The Dems have really screwed themselves over on this...
...there was an article on MSNBC that by not campaigning now and stripping all the Dem delegates, the Florida independents will nto look upon this favorably come November.

The Repukes punished the state by taking away HALF the delegates, not all. Why didn't we do that?

10. I agree, it's a cluster f. But all Dems knew what the rules were going in to this
But it also looks like the state party always planned to get the nominee to push to get the delegates at the national convention. Bullshit. What machines did these people vote on? Sequoias?

snip...

Karen Thurman, chairwoman of the Florida Democratic Party, said in a late afternoon conference call with reporters today that she intends to go ahead with the state’s primary on Jan. 29. Even if the Democratic National Committee follows through with its threat to take away Florida delegates, she says she believes the nominee of the party will intercede and allow the delegates to be counted at the party’s nominating convention in Denver.

23. I think the mess could have been avoided by...gasp...doing
what the Repukes did...take away half the delegates. Makes it seem like you're punishing them, but still have people feel as if their votes count.

28. And with all his whining, Obama can use the Florida exit polls to target his campaign
And I know he will do just that, for he did not do well with the Latinos and Whites.

So with all his hollow bell ringing, he still benefits from the data - - for Florida is truly a cosmopolitan snapshot of our country.

And you can believe that his campaign is gobbling up the numbers as we speak.
