I hate to say this, but I don't believe Hillary is standing up for Florida voters on principle at all. It's all about her winning at any cost.

I hope Senator Clinton's exit strategy for her campaign is better than George W. Bush's exit strategy for Iraq. :!:

Hillary didn't give 2 spits in the recount of 2000 when she and Bill were M.I.A. and only cared about her JFKless battle for her Senate seat
Not a peep out of either of them for Gore.

Let's stop the childish finger pointing and double standards. Both sides are playing the situation with Florida and Michigan to their political advantage.

This is what is starting to turn off voters. That's why many Obama supporters won't vote for Hillary and many Hillary supporters won't vote for Obama. They are disgusted with the vitriol and hypocrisy of both sides. It's disgusting and it needs to stop.

You are probably right, there, but at least she IS standing up for us, whatever her reasons. And, imho, it IS the right thing to do. I would like to think she is doing it for the right reasons, but I suspect purely mercenary ones. Either way, I applaud her for doing the right thing. It is actions that matter here. And those of both the remaining candidates are being closely watched by millions of Florida and Michigan voters...well, I shouldn't really speak for Michigan, as that is a somewhat different story, but as far as here in Florida: we're watching very carefully. We've already figured out which candidate is for us and which one is actively trying to block our delegates.
