Clinton group to Obama: Will Florida delegates count? Refers to Karl Rove...not Chairman Dean.

Clinton group to Obama: Will Florida delegates count?
By Larry Lipman | Thursday, January 17, 2008, 11:55 AM

Hillary Clinton’s unofficial campaign organization in Florida continues to beat the drum over an Obama campaign memo that said “neither the Florida nor Michigan primaries are playing any role in deciding the Democratic nominee.”

A news release sent out by the unofficial Florida for Hillary campaign asks the question: “Senator Obama, will you instruct your delegates in Denver to seat the delegation from Florida, or will you join Karl Rove and Katherine Harris in making sure that our votes don’t count?”

Ana Cruz, spokeswoman for the Florida for Hillary campaign, said that although Clinton has not made a direct pledge to seat the Florida delegation, “I can’t imagine that she won’t.

“From what we have heard … she is not going to disenfranchise any voters at any time in any state,” Cruz said.

The Obama campaign did not have an immediate response when asked whether he would support seating the Florida delegation.

Sweet little ploy by Hillary's folks to link this to Rove. Perhaps they have forgotten about Chariman Dean's positions, as stated below.

"Their primary essentially won't count, " Democratic National Committee chairman Howard Dean said of Florida. "Anybody who campaigns in Florida is ineligible for delegates."

not for lack of trying! :rofl:

shades of 2000 at work.

Wonder when the Hillary Angry Mob shows up, and when it goes to court? :eyes:

Most of Hillary's supporters there are Repub-lite

Once she wraps up the nomination, so what he said won't be an issue.
