"Hillary Clinton has the majority of votes..."

How do they do that? I mean, she DOES NOT have the majority in any conceivable way unless you go through incredible mental contortions (like NOT counting caucus states, including Michigan and Florida, etc.)

media are not calling her on it. They should ask her how she arrives at that number and they should confront her with the facts. They are perpetuating the lie.

Or maybe she just wasn't too good at math to begin with. :shrug:

... that Matthews was able to get Wasserman to admit the Clinton camp is trying to get a result that they would, under normal circumstances, abhor - the "elitist" super delegates to go against the pledged delegates to give the nomination to Clinton. It obviously was not her intent, but she as much as said that was their hope.

Of course, the whole "we're leading in the popular vote" thing is getting tired. If certain mathematical acrobatics are performed, then sure, Clinton is leading in that one category. But that is not how things really stand. If FL and MI are excluded - or even just MI, where all of the Dems besides Clinton removed their names from the ballot - Obama is well ahead in that category. Hell, if you include both of those states, but also include the caucus states, he's still ahead. And all of that is still avoiding the major issue that the popular vote has nothing to do with who wins the nomination. It's all about delegates, and as of this morning, Obama has won the majority of pledged delegates and is closing in on the magic 2026 total.

She will ride this one to re-election in Florida, preying on voter disenfranchisement at the expense of the party.

I have liked Congresswoman Wasserman's tenacity in the past. I hope this isn't some calculated political ploy.

Wasserman-Schulz has already gone on record as not wanting to campaign for
the three Democratic challengers in So. Florida. She doesn't want to cause
friction in the Florida congressional delegation. Can you imagine a republican
doing that.

...and when he started talking it pretty much supported that look he gave

it's, as christopher walken in true romance says, a "tell"

sleaze----pure hypocritical sleaze

Time to vote her out.

treating WVA & Kentucky like California, New York & Illinois all rolled up? The democrats won't cature either Kentucky or West Virginia in the general - let it go folks. If CA prez primary was still June 3, I do believe Clinton would no longer win this state.
