Here's something I don't get...

How is it even something approaching ethical for Hillary Clinton's campaign to suggest that the votes in Michigan and Florida should 'count' in the race for the nomination?  No one else's name was on the ballot.  Why is the media framing this as a 'reasonable people can differ' kind of issue?  It's fraud, plain and simple.

Are you suggesting that the MSM is biased in favor of Senator Clinton? I'm sorry, that directly contravenes what Senator Clinton says, so I'm afraid I just can't believe this.

DF: Indeed... I think this just goes into the general bucket of "why the hell aren't they complaining more about X" comments... Perhaps Obama's trying to stay above the fray, but it's starting to feel like the way Kerry stayed above the fray during swiftboat...

I wouldn't go so far as to call it fraud, but I think it proves the win-at-all-costs mentality of Hillary that is a turnoff to me (I can't speak for anyone else).

Everybody (DNC, candidates ... et al) was in agreement about Michigan and Florida, but as soon as she started having trouble with Obama ... she decided to claim both of them, and not even in a smooth way.

It just turns my stomach when I hear her trying to act like she's the champion of the poor voters in Michigan and Florida ...
