The increasing likelihood that Democratic primary voters in Michigan and Florida won't have any input whatsoever in the selection of their presidential candidate is driving me up the wall. Iran can have smooth elections, but now we can't? Well, okay, that wasn't quite fair. In Iran, the list of candidates is highly filtered before the voters can even get to them. But still.
I understand that the Florida and Michigan State parties broke Dem Nat'l. Committee rules, but does ANYTHING justify disenfranchisement of millions of voters? As a Clinton supporter I'd have no problem with counting the election results that already happened in those States, but that would also be patently unfair because Obama's name wasn't even on the ballot in Michigan (I'm not sure what the case was in Florida).
