You think Mukasey will just (5.00 / 1) (#15)

"fill out that form"?  No questions asked?  Sounds like endearing naivete from you.

You think Mukasey will even look at it? (5.00 / 2) (#18)

You think Bush and Mukasey would not want to see a Florida primary? You think Charlie Crist will not want it?

The naivete is all yours.

The purpose of this was to try and stick the word "Bush" on this process.

I am no fool and I know exactly what Obama is trying to do here.

Um, yes? (none / 0) (#22)

I do think Bush and Mukasey would like to see the Democrats lose in November by mucking about with the Florida revote.  Didn't Crist already do what he could to block a revote?  Perhaps you should be as cynical about Republicans as you are about Obama.

Obama is the one mucking about here (5.00 / 2) (#23)

He may well be (none / 0) (#24)

but I do think the concern that the GOP will do all it can to keep Floridians angry at the Dems is a valid one.

So, is Obama trying to set himself up as (none / 0) (#62)

the Al Gore candidate, who just wants every vote counted, thereby making Hillary the George Bush candidate, who just wants to win any way she can?  Forgive me if that sounds as ludicrous as it did when I typed it, but things are getting seriously more and more weird.

Honestly, I think now would be a good time for some enterprising blogger/journalist-type to remind the voters about Obama's pattern of finding legal ways to eliminate candidates and clear the field.

His campaign must see some very disturbing internals and is hoping to ride this out.  I see they are already mass mailing in PA to remind voters of the deadline to register as a Democrat - you know, so they can be Dems for a day, I guess.

Just remember: He won his first ever election (none / 0) (#67)

on ballot/petition technicalities.

Just to be clear (5.00 / 1) (#20)

I think the appropriate thing here to do is for them to get lawyered up to get the pre-clearance needed.  ASAP.
