Don and Carole Fowler are married but are on different sides of this debate. One supports Clinton, the other ObamaYou might call them a political power couple. Don Fowler is a former Democratic National Committee chair; his wife, Carol Khare Fowler, is chair of the South Carolina Democratic Party. They are both superdelegates. And both sit on the DNC's now famous Rules and Bylaws Committee, which will meet this Saturday in Washington to decide the fate of the delegates from the punished line-cutting primary states, Florida and Michigan.
While they and the 28 other members of the committee try to figure how many delegates get seated from these two states, and also how to divide those delegates between Hillary Clinton, whose name was on both ballots, and Barack Obama, who removed his name from the Michigan ballot, there might be slight rift between the couple who have worked in politics together for more than 30 years and been married for 2½. Carol has endorsed Obama; Don supports Clinton. U.S. News discussed the state of the race and the meaning of this meeting with the couple.
Excerpts:
There have been rumors of planned protests at the Rules and Bylaws Committee meeting this weekend in Washington. What kind of circus are you expecting in D.C.?
Carol Khare Fowler: I hope that inside that meeting there won't be any circus at all. We usually don't have a circus.
Don Fowler: Rules committee meetings are not things that fascinate people.
Carol: People might die of boredom...about the most exciting thing that ever happens is some reporter goes to sleep.
