cheating? (1.25 / 4) (#172)

Both MI and FL broke the rules. They were told of the consequences and proceeded anyway. Hillary  also ignored the rules, and now wants a redo as she's losing. I understood that the state legislature put the kibosh on a new primary because of the legeal problems involved.

Waht rules? (5.00 / 1) (#182)

What rules did Hillary ignor?

Hillary wants the voters in Fl. and Mi. to have a voice.  Yes, rules were broken, but in a very close race, those voters are important, as they will be in Novermber.  She has broken no rules by her efforts to enfranchise all of the voters.  Rather, she suggested the rules change so that all votes get counted.

BTW, the thread is about media coverage, and we've gone off-topic.
