MI and FL: Punish the Superdelegates, not the pledged delegates
I have been thinking about this debacle, and it occurs to me: the SUPERdelegates are the party leaders for the state. It is THEIR fault for not coming up with a better solution for the people of their states before the primaries were moved.
I have no clue whether they favor Obama or Clinton, but I think that THEY are the ones who should be punished with no vote.
As for the pledged delegates—the people voted, and their opinions stand as being on record. I think both states should be certified 100%, with all of Michigans "Uncommitted" votes going to Obama, since Edwards (the other guy not on the ballot) has now endorsed Obama.
Being a superdelegate means being a leader. These people failed as leaders, and should not be awarded votes. However, the will of the people should be represented in full.
