Why didn't Donna Brazile leave the party when the Superdelegate rules were made?
Edited on Fri Feb-08-08 10:52 PM by Proud2BAmurkin
Why didn't she leave when the rules were made that said it was possible for the Superdelegates to decide the nomination?

Now that she sees this is a race where that could take place and those are the rules, what is she waiting for?

3. Even more, why didn't she do anything has the head of the DNC Voting Rights Institute?
Don't mean to be a thread hi-jacker here...That's not my intent, so I hope I'm not doing that.

But since you mention Donna Brazile...

After the Florida debacle in 2000, the DNC established the Voting Rights Institute, which was supposed to help educate voters on their rights and responsibilities at the voting booth. Donna Brazile was supposed to lead that effort.

And basically, the DNC VRI sat on their laurels.

They did viturally nothing to help ensure election integrity or to help educate voters.

Sad.
