California's superdelegates -- especially its Democratic members of Congress -- are caught up in the rising angst. Six of the 15 congressional members who have endorsed Clinton saw their districts vote for Obama on Feb. 5, while five of the seven who have endorsed Obama have voters who favored Clinton.

More proof our elected "Representitives" are the voice of the "people."

Many Democrats believed Bush stole the election and thwarted the popular will of voters.

No they don't. It's pure political theater, agitprop.

Grab the popcorn, a cold drink, and the remote control, sit back and enjoy the Democrats self destruct. I hope Hillary keeps fighting to the very end and it destroys the party. The Clinton’s are not going to give up easily. They will win by hook or by crook.

Great article! This should be a bumper sticker:

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., was a REPUBLICAN!

I’d prefer to have an serious candidacy on dems’ side, not a communist-islamist pompous ass. Train wreck or not, I’d rather skip this show.

Fair enough. Tell us, who do you recommend?

Dr. King’s dad was a Republican but its hard to believe Martin himself was,at least after 1960.
Dr King,by 1968,was clearly much more comfortable in the big government,anti-war wing of the Democratic Left.

I think, Zell is unavailable and Scoop Jackson is dead. I will continue looking.

“Clinton won both disputed primaries and could go to court demanding that her delegates be recognized.”

She can take her grievance to the DNC nominating convention credentials committee or some other party entity, but not the courts. There’s no law saying those delegates can’t be seated; it was a party rule (that the Clinton campaign agreed to when it was adopted).

Are you eligible to vote for President in the US?

established a special class of delegates who, it was said, would protect the party from nominating an unelectable figure.

Liberals love to believe that they, the wise overlords, will protect the ignorant masses from their own stupidity and ignorance.

Wait till the antiwar moonbats realize that they are the ignorant masses and Hillary Corporation will save them from their own dumbness.

Buildings will burn.

Which staffer at the DNC headquaters wrote this article for Scripps?

Or which staffer at Scripps writes the DNC talking points?

Hell, they are interchangeable parts of the same organization so it really does not matter.

Hmmm. Maybe that’s what I get for quoting an article in NewsMax. In 24 point type, no less. D’oh!

You hope no one wins. But you secretly hope that the currently weaker side wins something soon...

Yep. I can't believe I'm actually rooting for her to win Texas and Ohio. I hope they damage each other so much that which ever one of them wins the nomination, the other one's supporters will not vote for them in November.

For a moment I thought that you ask me whether I'm eligible to be the President. Sweet thought, still enjoying it.
