I won's speculate on why Obama's helping Michigan's Republicans screw with our nominatoin process by sitting on his hands while they use him as an excuse for their refusal to act on a re-vote bill. Jennifer Granholm - Michigan's Democratic Governor - has sent out a draft proposal to set up a new vote in Michigan in early June. Three parties need to sign off on it...
Hillary Clinton
Barack Obama
The DNC
Care to venture a guess as to who the lone holdout is?
Hillary visited my home state this morning - take a look at this clip of her talk at the AFSCME HQ in Detroit...
There is absolutely no excuse for these stall tactics.
You either support the notion of one wo/man one vote - or you don't.
So which is it Obama?

Does Obama Support 1 Wo/Man 1 Vote, or Not?

I was honored to be asked to introduce Sen. Clinton in Detroit this morning. If Sen. Obama doesn't want to count the 600,000 votes already cast, then I say "MEET US IN MICHIGAN!!"
Texas isn't taking Hillary's request for verification of signatures at caucus meetings seriously.
Talk about not caring about one man, one vote.
Urban voters have greater representation at the Texas Senatorial State Conventions than rural voters. Of course Obama did better in urban areas, Hillary in rural areas.
She won the state even though he won urban areas. Rural voters really, really turned out for her.
I am so angry I am losing my ability to discuss this and many of the unfair things that are happening to Hillary. We just have Obama free discussions at our house. My husband can't talk to colleagues where he teaches and I am now unable to blog and talk to my fellow bloggers because of this.
Sad. But discrimination is always painful. I hope this gets women to pay attention and people stop using silly phrases like "post feminism."
hey alegre- you were on the colbert report tonight! he covered the strike at daily kos, and issued a challenge.
stephen colbert has challenged the hillary supporters to take on the obama supporters in a competition to see who can contribute the most to his charity to benefit pennsylvania schoolchildren! he did this in south carolina when he was covering there, and raised $66,000. here is the link for the PA contest:

The Detroit Free Press (freep.com) provides coverage of the Obama campaign's "rationale" for the delays. Hillary's 3/19 comments stand for themselves.
Obama is not stupid. He knows he will lose in FL and MI. He will hem and haw as long as it takes.
Honestly, I don't think it will happen. FL & MI won't count again this time around. DNC made a big mistake.
Could it be there is a conspiracy against Hillary? The press goes gaga over BO. His speech was pretty good. But, really..."not since Martin Luther King...? Please. What JW said was beyond the pale and any thinking person knows it. Makes me wonder what BO thinks. Not his words but what he thinks. Now we're going to ignore 3/4 million voters? Imagine if things were reversed, and BO was the victor in these states. I wonder if the DNC leadership would be stepping up to the plate then. I think we all need to commit to fighting this MI/FLA thing til the end...and maybe after...
