the fact is that dean is the main cause for the rut in dems. he is arrogant and do not believe in compromises. if he think dems will win white house by ignoring michigan and florida then he must be living in COOKCULAND.
if the results in these states were counted earlier then hillary would have been the candidate. may be in his unconcious mind he DOES NOT FAVOUR A WOMAN PRESIDENT or has CLINTON PHOBIA.
once obama is speed boated by republicans and shows like glen beck he will no where to be found.
no one can lead a mighty nation just by empty rhetoric. IF OBAMA COULD NOT MAKE A SOUND JUDGEMENT ABOUT HIS PASTOR REV> WRIGHT IN 20 YEARS
THEN HE IS NOT CAPABLE TO ANSWER THE 3 AM CALL
dems are going to be fooled once again.

I have been a proud democrat, who votes in every single election no matter how small or large. I stay informed about the issues and pledge my time and money to help our cause because I support the values of the Democratic Party. Yet, lately I have felt alienated from our party because the party and I have grown jaded by what is being done to Senator Clinton.

When George Bush "won" the election the first time because votes were not counted I was outraged, but I never thought I would live to see my party, our party, disenfranchise voters. All of Florida's delegates should be seated. There was a historic turnout at the primary and Hillary Clinton won. Dean should stop blatantly favoring Obama. He should not let the decision of a few people, who decided to move the primary up, silence the will of over a million people. In Michigan democrats should be allowed to revote since Senator Obama was not on the ballot. This is the only fair solution.
