3. You may want to check with the DNC... the delegates will not count

They will not be permitted to count toward the nomination.

AFTER the nominee is chosen, the nominee can chose to have the delegates seated at the convention, but that is only after the nominating process is over.

Those are the rules...

5. Funny, the credentials committee hasn't been seated yet

They recommend to the convention.... the convention votes... The "DNC" doesn't get the last say.

Every actually PARTICIPATED in the Democratic party before? .... Thought not.

7. the Florida Party has always planned on getting the nominee to fight for the delegates

snip...

Karen Thurman, chairwoman of the Florida Democratic Party, said in a late afternoon conference call with reporters today that she intends to go ahead with the state�s primary on Jan. 29. Even if the Democratic National Committee follows through with its threat to take away Florida delegates, she says she believes the nominee of the party will intercede and allow the delegates to be counted at the party�s nominating convention in Denver.
