Count All The Votes... If They Are For Me
Did she really say this? So much for memories of 2000 but then again, Al Gore hasn't yet endorsed Hillary either.Pledged delegates are a "misnomer. The whole point is for delegates, however they are chosen, to really ask themselves who would be the best president and who would be our best nominee against Senator McCain," Clinton said. "And I think that process goes all the way to the convention."While it is indeed true that the delegates are not bound by the party to vote for a specific candidate, the voting population expects that the delegates shall faithfully represent the voting interests expressed in the Democratic primaries/caucuses. If not, why bother with any primaries or caucuses - just let the delegates chosen by party bigwigs vote as they clearly know better than the people, or so Hillary would have us believe.
Wasn't it only Tuesday that Hillary was clubbing Obama like a baby seal claiming he was denying Florida and Michigan residents their votes at the Democrat convention by opposing by opposing re-vote efforts?
