I think she's missing two NOMs off the end.

The sign is a lot funnier if you read it like Cookie Monster, with the NOM NOM NOMs at the end.

I kinda agree it's unfair all the power Iowa and NH get in each cycle.
Definitely. I like having a rolling primary season (excitement every week!!), but each state should have the chance to be in the first week.

I still don't like this guy's full seating proposal, but he's right about how messed-up the primaries are.

It's true, but you can't make an election binding AFTER it was declared non-binding.

Holy shit, this guy is seriously lashing out at the party's scheduling of the primaries. That was some serious smackdown right there. :lol

Still, he's a bit of a hypocrite. He talks about how messed up the party's scheduling is, but he can't recognize that the primary in Michigan was too FUBAR for all the delegates to be seated.

That would be more fair that they had some sort of lottery that allows different states to go first.
 
I may be the "cheebs" here, but anyone thinking this bullshit committee hearing will lead to party unity is delusional.


The democratic party shows, yet again, how they can totally fuck up what should be a shoe in election win.

The democratic party doesn't deserve the White House. Just look at them fighting amongst themselves like a pack of fucking idiots.

I absolutely cannot wait to see their fucking reactions when McCain is inaugurated as the Country's next President. it's god damn shame. People actually think there will be unity from this? People must not be seriously comprehending what the fuck is really going on in that room.

I say again it's a god damn shame. Obama is a fantastic candidate and I wish him the best but just look at what's going on? We thought this would be a open and shut thing and Hilary even has her campaign people on the fucking committee?

What I see going on here is people on the fucking DNC committee driving a rift on National TV between voters around the Country and especially in Florida against the Obama campaign. They are coming out of this thing as the party that didn't allow Florida's votes to be counted 100%

Obama is the likely nominee and this is what's being done by his own fucking party? If that's the case then I say all the fucking superdelegates should just come out and announce their support for Hilary right now and end this entire thing for Obama because what I'm saw in that room is a complete lack of support and a total muddying of Obama with florida voters.

How can you think this was going to be open and shut?

^ oh bizarro cheebs! you so crazy!

this is the process that leads to an equitable solution to all parties. this will not change the outcome of the nomination, something Obama acknowledged by essentially granting Clinton 'victory' in Florida. as Dean said earlier - this isn't about the candidate, it's about the party.

the public hand wringing here is good right now by allowing all voices to be heard and all sides given proper air. can i ask how old you are?

I think it shows how messed up the democratic party is that the Republicans appeared to be very split between three candidates, and all of a sudden they came together for one candidate, just like that.

In the meantime, us democrats have Obama, who is very muchly ahead of Clinton and appears to be the nominee, yet the democratic party continues to allow Clinton to split the party with her whiny bullshit. It's silly.

In response to the Ausman proposal, a person close to the Clinton camp said "we agree this is the way it's likely to end."

"I don't know if we're satisfied but it looks like that's what's going to get passed. You take the best deal you can get."

Still, the person added "deliberations will continue."

And, outside the meeting room, Jon Ausman predicted that " the superdelegates are probably going to end up with half votes."

He was optimistic about the meeting. "We're coming out of this unified and we're going to be very comfortable with the 100-110 delegates we get. We had nothing before today."

Sounds like half all around for Florida indeed.:D

CowboyAstronaut, try to relax man and separate your emotions from this whole thing.

It's actually a very interesting peek inside the guts of American politics. You should enjoy it.

Wexler ftw

Also shut up Ickes.

"A compromise to one person is not necessarily a compromise to another person." What do you mean? A compromise is when both persons come to enough of an agreement to make something happen. Dumbass.

I agree, yup. The Clinton wing of the DNC, which seems really disproportionate is killing the party as we speak right now.
 
This is a very sad day for me. I shouldn't get this pissed about politics, but I'm at a complete loss for words at what is going on here.

How is Florida and Michigan going to view the Democratic party now after getting this ugly inside look at the party? Who would want to support the people in that room?

If this doesn't serve as evidence here and now that if Super Delegates don't come out in droves to support Obama come out at least tuesday or soon after this thing nothing else will.

I'm always impressed at the Democratic party's ability to screw things up. It's so obvious that some of them are looking for television time.

What would save this whole thing is if Ted Kennedy just showed up and told them all to shut the fuck up.
