Obama, Edwards Remain Off Mich. Ballot (Clinton is only "top" Dem on ballot)

The cross over of trouble making Dems could be huge.

I bet they all vote for Ron Paul.

Obama is not the smartest guy in the world. Why would a serious candidate cede Michigan to Hillary? It’s bone-headed.

[Old Retired Army Guy]

The last shots you heard were candidates shooting themselves in the foot. Michigan has more voters than Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina combined.

why are they even talking about this? could we PLEASE get our budget finished first?

mi ping.

[TMSuchman]

This is due [IMHO] that our gov. jenny [from the block] grandstand activly backs hitlory for president.

Is this post a joke?

Hillary certainly pulled off an end run on this one. It's very likely the "gentlemanly" agreement was that ALL the candidates would boycott. Of course, Hillary is no gentleman.

All eight Democratic candidates have agreed not to campaign in Michigan and Florida because they broke DNC rules by moving their primaries ahead of Feb. 5.

LOL! Keep doing that please.
I want to see the day that the dems concede Florida before the election!

[absolootezer0]

uh.. no. there are still budget issues that haven’t been decided/ approved.

Is this post a joke?

It sure made me laugh.

“I bet they all vote for Ron Paul.”

Bingo! That is the RATS plan, as I’ve been saying for weeks here.

That is as obvious as the ears ......

I guess one of those budget issues would be how much to give ACORN to go out and register fake Dem voters?

Sometimes it’s just a pleasure to watch fools continue to shoot themselves in the foot, isn’t it????

As a friend of mine says: “It’s the little victories that mean the most”.

Edwards, Barack Obama, Joe Biden and Bill Richardson last month pulled their names from the ballot because the state violated Democratic National Committee rules by moving up its election.

Since when do democraps care about rules, especially made by their own party?

Seems to me this would be an ideal way for Republicans to take advantage of gaining voters by running ads right before the primary. Something like, the democratic party failed to give all candidates equal opportunity, so we would like to invite you voters a chance to broaden your horizons, vote for a Republican that will put your vote to work instead of running out companies like your Democrat governor has done! Let your voice be heard, VOTE REPUBLICAN IN MICHIGAN!

“Seems to me this would be an ideal way for Republicans to take advantage of gaining voters by running ads right before the primary.”

Productive citizens and businesses have fled this socialist welfare utopia by the tens of thousands. What remains are welfare bums, crooked politicians, businesses and bureaucrats and state government retirees living off the state teat.

Quite simply, this demographic is too stupid to vote for anything but a rat. In fact, these people depend on the state or federal government for their existence.

If you would like to be added or dropped from the Michigan ping list, please freepmail me.

Gotta love this line...

With Clinton the only Democratic front-runner on the ballot, some fear the primary will just be a beauty contest on the Democratic side, taking away the primary's importance.
