Yeah, she's having a victory party. So what? She won. And yeah, she's spinning it, but I think anyone else would be doing the same thing. So I don't get all the outrage. And I hate seeing her called "scum" and "lowlife" here.

So all I can say, is maybe I'm missing something by my distance from the MSM; in that case I'm glad.

Congratulations to Hillary and her supporters.

5. I agree, Cali - I think any candidate would - or should - take advantage of

the situation.

7. Yeah you're missing someting alright

You have to be able to campaign in order to fairly and honestly win an election. They all agreed to boycott any state that went ahead of Feb 5. She is clearly breaking the rules because she wants to fool the country into believing she's winning elections, when she's not.

8. Absolutely agree. Big frickin deal. It was a shrewd campaign tactic...that's all

It either backfires or succeeds, but its hardly the root of all evil.

11. She's thanking everyone who voted for her.

Why is that wrong?

12. well for one thing she is arguing right now that

she is fighting in Florida for "principles" and that she is the defender of the great "principles of making every vote count" so she is pandering to the people of Florida and pandering to a state that thinks it is above the rules.

13. She's pitting Florida Democrats against the DNC...

By claiming that only she is "fighting" for their votes to "count".

She's trying to strong-arm the DNC into rewriting the rules for her benefit.

I ask you, what happens to these Florida Democrats if she's not the nominee? Will they still vote or will they stay home?

What happens to the downticket Dems on those Florida ballots?
