How can you steal delegates when (none / 0) (#137)

they are imaginary anyway?

Please understand: currently Clinton has ZERO delegates from Michigan. Michigan currently has ZERO delegates to be seated at the convention. These are imaginary delegates. If I have a pretend DeLorean and you say you've stolen it, are you guilty of grand theft auto?

You cannot steal something from somebody if they don't have it.

are imaginary, then how can anyone argue that Obama won?

imaginary. The DNC stripped all of Michigan's delegates last summer. As a result the January vote had zero effect in apportioning Michigan delegates for the convention in Denver. That is what makes Michigan's (and Florida's) delegates imaginary.

Then why do Obama's supporters (5.00 / 2) (#244)

keep talking about how Hillary is trying to "steal the nomination" from him.

He doesn't have it yet. So how can she steal it?

This is the INCLUSION your candidate proposes? Those "imaginary" voters, will be very REAL when November comes around and Florida and Michigan go RED!
