But this ought to be a party in which we may have to take stands, but we welcome people back.
"This is a party where we should enforce the rules! Unless some people object. Then we should be nice to those people. We should both enforce the rules, and not enforce them if that would involve being stern with some people. So that way we can have rules and also not have rules. You have to be reasonable, after all."

I hope the rules win
What else is this but self-sabotage? The DNC is saying to Florida that the petty need to sanction them trumps the voters' right to have representation. That's why y'all are going to lose Florida in November and, therefore, the Presidency: because Dean and Pelosi and whoever the fuck else want a radical Leftist on their slate instead of a grown-up who knows what she's talking abt.
The Rules Committee needs to put in instant replay.
Germond: When we wrote the rules we made sure they had meat and beef and force - dammit these were beauty contests and that tough because Hillary is attractive but Obama is handsome too
The Mets have come back in the 8th inning

A former Burke County rescue squad member who disappeared and changed his name when he became the subject of a police investigation four years ago was charged Thursday with child molestation, authorities said.
Richard Murphy, 58, of Valdese was charged with one count of statutory sex offense, said Burke County Sheriff John McDevitt.
Police in Valdese began investigating Murphy, who worked with the Eastern Burke County Rescue Squad as a junior volunteer recruiter, four years ago when five boys between the ages and 13 and 15 said they had been sexually abused.

He threw two pitches at the start of the season and promptly went on the DL with a hamstring injury completely unrelated to the injury that shelved him for most of last season. He'll be back on Tuesday to finish an inning, where upon he'll pull his groin, and go on the DL until September.

For reasons that shall go unstated, I just ate my first Twinkie in at least two decades. I was never a huge fan but I remember liking them and being impressed by their delicate sponginess and creamy centers when I was five or six years old.
This Twinkie -- fresh from the wrapper -- had a tougher texture than I remember and the cream filling lacked even the slightest hint of vanilla, tasting instead of sugar and corn syrup.
Anyway, I advise not revisiting this particular snack cake.

"We have big mountains here."
Fuck you, whatever.
OK, so we won't go with purely letting the voters decide - we have to punish MI and FL for cutting line, by stripping their delegates.
And we also don't want to adhere to the rules that we set up, because that makes some people angry.
So instead we'll use some mostly-arbitrary backroom deal that is what a small committee of people thinks is an approximation of the voters' will.

They should have either gone with half delegates in the first place, rather than none. Or they can simply say, "Pound sand. If we change the rules on the fly, we're making a mistake even worse."
The notion that there has to be some sort of compromise is just wrong. Yes, let's set a precedent where we can retroactively change the rules for the selection process - I can't imagine how that might come back to bite us in the ass in the future.
If they shot themselves in the foot by making a bad decision at the outset wrt to FL and Mi, they're just compounding it. PARTICULARLY as it's not going to change the result now.
why is it not a big deal in the left sphere that the florida primary date (out of bounds for dems) was set by the (repub) Florida state legislature??? this is just one of so many sneaky tactics they use to disenfranchise dem voters - how has this been tolerated by the dnc and the watchdog bloggers on the left??? Especially after 2000 - cut these people some slack. if you have to hold a new primary where they both campaign fine - but disallowing is just a repub victory.
