the repubs put the primary date (5.00 / 3) (#50)

on a bill that required a paper trail from all votes on machines.  To go on record against such a bill in a state such as FL would have been political suicide.

So, yes, they forced the dems into voting, then when the dems filed a lawsuit, an obnoxious repub judge basically slapped them down like bad monkeys.

Of course, the key out of this is the DNC rules, which seem to be selectively enforced.  They allow a state party to be excused from the pre-super Tuesday stipulation if they make all effort to adhere to the law.
