1. Why do the Florida super-delegates get a vote. Seems to me
when the Florida Democratic Party disenfranchised me, they disenfranchised the super-delegates.

3. Guess I will email the DNC on that one. And thank you, I did not
realize that Florida was now a DLC oligarchy.

4. Superdelegates won't get a vote
As it stands right now FL and MI superdelegates will not be able to vote. We list the endorsing superdelegates but mark them in red to signify that they really don't count. We also have a tracker with MI and FL and one without.

We're blowing away most of the major news organizations' superdelegate count. What makes our list even more valuable is that we only list superdelegates that have officially endorsed a candidate through a press release or a news article. No other news organization has any kind of list of superdelegates.

Watch for a McCaskill endorsement for Obama later today.

6. Good. Sorry, my computer is yellow and gray.
Something is out in my computer, and I am saving for a new one so I saw no red.

I am so angry about what the Florida Democratic Party did that I see red when the subject comes up.

Monday, I am going to fire off some letters to get the anger out of my system. This is unhealthy.

I am entering my 7th decade this month, and it is the first time that I have been disenfranchised. I now understand how minorities feel about voter suppression and caging.

5. According to the website the Florida and Michigan super delegates do not count towards totals.
