Why should it matter since he won Michigan already and will likely win Florida polling?

The reason she 'won' Michigan is because the other candidates followed through with a general agreement to withdraw their names from the ballot since Michigan delegates were not going to be seated. However, Hillary reneged on the agreement and did not withdraw her name from the ballot as the other candidates had done. With the names Obama, Edwards, Richardson, etc. gone from the ballot, it was a forgone conclusion that the only remaining candidate - Hillary Clinton - was the guaranteed winner. She now wants those delegates to count.

The Democrats spawned this monster, The Empress Hillary and King William the Fellator...

When they were bashing BUSH, the Democrats were just fine with them, but now that the monsters have begun feeding on THEM, they are screaming bloody murder....

Ain’t Karma a bitch???

If a reporter asked Bill Clinton about this statement of yours, you can bet that he would go into a purple rage, meaning that you've basically got it right and you've nailed them.

However, it's really worse than that. I think it was Ann Coulter on TV describing how Hillary's name stayed on the Michigan ballot, despite the agreement of the Dem top candidates plus others (Hillary, Breck girl, Obama, maybe Richardson, to remove their names from the ballot; Kookcinich & Gravel left their names on the ballot).

Per Coulter, Hillary sent in her Petition to remove her name from the ballot so that it was received on the very last day that it could be implemented. When the Michigan authorities (Board of Election, etc.) looked at it, they realized that, oops, Hillary forgot to sign it. Michigan authorities (maybe just interpreting the law/regulations or maybe working in league with the Clintons?) decided that they could NOT accept the Petition w/o Hillary's signature & it was too late to get the signature. Hillary's name stayed on the ballot.

Hillary was so embarrassed . . . NOT. She snookered Obama & Breck girl. The Clintons are world class cheaters and liars.

I wonder if this change of heart about MI delegates has anything to do with some fear that she MIGHT lose the nomination to Obama?
