Justice for Michigan and Florida

posted Sunday, 17 February 2008

The Democratic Party stripped Michigan and Florida of their delegates since they moved their primary elections in violation of party rules.  Clinton won both elections but neither election was fair since Obama was not on the ballot in Michigan and since no one really campaigned in either state.  Any revote will not be fair since the circumstances have materially changed with Obama leading Clinton which would change the dynamic of any revote.  There is no real justice here—either Clinton or Obama will “win” based on power not right.  The Democrats have found yet another way to hurt themselves—the Republicans should just sit back and enjoy.
