Not 57 states?
She should be encouraged to do so....that will cripple the DNC for decades, maybe to the point of being as weak as the RNC!
Correctamundo...
The meeting began this morning with remarks from DNC chairman Howard Dean and Rules committee co-chairs Alexis Herman and James Roosevelt. That’s followed by Florida’s challenge, Michigan’s challenge, and then lunch. Committee members will then work towards some kind of resolution, which will require a majority of the 30-person panel (13 back Clinton, eight back Obama, nine are uncommitted). The conclusion could be pushed to tomorrow. All the while, WomenCountPAC will host a rally/protest outside the hotel where the meeting is taking place.
I wish there was a Pee Wee Herman movie on right now. It would be an improvement.

The co-chairs demonstrate the lunacy of the pursuit of diversity for it’s own sake. Egads.
Yep... problem with Hillary running as an independent is she probably steals more votes from McCain than Obama.
I agree totally. If Obama is to be voted out, they want the general population (which they can say will be racists conservatives) to do it. Then the Dims will love the riots.
Is he really????
OH - can’t stop laughing!!!
Take care, Kristinn.......those “tolerant” liberals don’t tolerate intruders very nicely....
What, no prayer? No invocation?
Alexis Herman just coined a new word: intragazees.
Gotta love ebonics.
Howard Dean makes a typical democrat speech full of platitudes and fairytales. Alexis Herman is left to explain how it’s OK to disinfranchise Florida and Michigan voters because nobody wants to be caught booing her on live natl. Tee-Vee. What a crock!
They said the pledge... but some of them just “mouthed” the word “god”.... I think :)
Man’s just repeating what the woman before him said. Face time.
:) I love it.I just put it on.
No, an independent run by Hillary would not be good, if Obama looks like he's going to lose anyway. It would result in more Dem voters going to the polls, rather than staying home if the contest is between a Dem they don't like vs a Republican
They’re setting this up to reject Michigan and Floriduh.
Oh, lawdy....I'm rolling on the floor. Daniel goes into the lion's den with a wicked sense of humor!
