"I hear all the time from people in Florida and Michigan that they want their voices heard in selecting the Democratic nominee.
"I believe our nominee will need the enthusiastic support of Democrats in these states to win the general election, and so I will ask my Democratic convention delegates to support seating the delegations from Florida and Michigan. I know not all of my delegates will do so and I fully respect that decision. But I hope to be President of all 50 states and U.S. territories, and that we have all 50 states represented and counted at the Democratic convention.
"I hope my fellow potential nominees will join me in this.
"I will of course be following the no-campaigning pledge that I signed, and expect others will as well."
Typical dysfunctional crap. Same thing as Al Gore in 2000 where he wanted that recount; but I’m sorry, not in all counties, just the ones where he was ahead. What kind of sick mind thinks things are fair when only one side benefits like that? Those who cherry pick the rules have no respect for them.
Because she is Hillary Clinton, that's why. Now, no more questions.
I’m surprised she isn’t suing to have them seated.
Incredible, but not surprising at all.
The Clinton Machine will stop at nothing, the only thing that surprises me about it is how blatantly they do these things. They don’t care that people know they are behaving like scum, they don’t care that Bill is furthering trashing the image of how an ex-president should behave. Horrible.
George Soros?
Why didn’t Hillary say this BEFORE the DNC disenfranchised two states????? It is too late now. These voters never had the opportunity to vote for all the candidates running. Their votes meant nothing.
I was wondering what other black politician she might run with? She almost has do it.
“Just” coming to the surface??? Where was this DUmmie all those years?
Why would you think Hillary would want Obama as her VP?
Screamin’ Howie Dean...
These power hungry crooks have no respect for any rule, except the rule that says they can make money and hurt anyone who gets in their way.
IF the republican party had any guts or wisdom, the Clintons would be treated as national embarrassments, not front runners.
I think they have him nailed up in a box somewhere.
Never fear, she’s still a scab, on the backside of America.
Well if the DNC had any stones (or power), they would say NO, the decision to penalize was final.
BTW the dems were idiots to not count those states, but why are we surprised that she wants the rules changed after the fact. Typical double cross by the Toons.
"Bow down to Zod!"
Because they are CLINTON’S, that’s why...
No agreement, no law, no standard applies to them...
The MSM has seen to that.
How did Gore know to focus on certain counties in Florida in 2000?
How did Kerry know to focus on Ohio in 2004?
How did Carter know he was toast in 1980?
THE polls.
What do the Clintons hear that makes her campaign like she is a loser and gets Bill more worked up than a Playboy magazine without those annoying articles?
I agree. I think Romney is so ambitious, he might pick J.C. Watts or Dr. Rice to be his running mate. If she does not pick an African-american as her running mate after the overt racism she and bill have shown this campaign, she’s done.
