I agree that he has already passed (5.00 / 1) (#33)

on the chance to be gutsy( I would say "do the right thing"). I know you have compared the states to children but they aren't. They don't learn lessons. The people in the states could care less about the DNC and their twisted power plays. The state parties and the DNC need to get their act together.

I don't think he's completely missed... (none / 0) (#36)

his chance to impress. Seating them now would be pretty damn gutsy. Seating them after PA and NC might still be a worthy gesture, depending on how they turn out. But with each passing primary, the genuine value decreases. Waiting until June pretty much turns it into a PR ploy.

I agree that states aren't children, but you still have to make sure that state parties have a vested interest in playing by the rules, and that means making sure they don't benefit from breaking them.

"I agree that states aren't children, but you still have to make sure that state parties have a vested interest in playing by the rules, and that means making sure they don't benefit from breaking them."

What benefit?  Name me a benefit.  As it turned out the DNC completely blew it on this one. The DNC found a way to wound the party.  Brilliant.

If you really want to talk about 'da roolz' it should be noted that six states broke the rules and two were given the death penalty.

This is no kid's game.
