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.

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.

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.

No shit. I voted for Edwards. I want a do-over.

Okay, I get it. Hillary is the most evil person since Hitler and her supporters are all stupid, evil racists.

Well, Pol Pot was probably more evil, and statistically speaking, I'm sure there must be some smart, good racists.

if florida and michigan were seated as voted, barack would still lead in the delegate count and popular vote
so why not just give it to the hillary supporters, declare victory for barack, and get on with it?

that was covered on the chelsea handler show last night; which is really the only appropriate venue.
So, we might end up with a compromise that doesn't, as a practical matter, resolve anything, and also sets a precedent for ignoring the rules whenever it becomes expedient to do so.
Nobody could have anticipated etc.
Take hostages. Michigan's primary was fucked up, flawed, whatever you want to call it.
To dismiss that is to dismiss a fair election.
No it's not. It's to have the maturity and grace to recognize that certain fuck ups are not reparable. This is why people apologize and resign their jobs and live quietly tending their gardens instead of creating arrogant, self-righteous spectacles about themselves and how "unfair" life is.
(CNN) -- Sen. Barack Obama's campaign confirmed Saturday that he has resigned from the Chicago church where controversial sermons by his former pastor and other ministers created repeated political headaches for the Democratic frontrunner.

saw one of obama's spokesmen asked that earlier. he said it was b/c the other 48 states who did follow the rules deserved recognition for that. some of them also wanted to move up their primaries but did not.

Vicki, Who ♥ Al Gore
Name me a fair election as a baseline.
And the perfect needn't be the enemy of the good. But I prefer to reserve "disenfranchised" for felons and others who lose the right to vote completely, or persons denied that right because of their status (non-property owners, non-whites, women, all historically once without the right to vote).
It's a primary. You get to vote in November. It's the first time in my memory I can remember my primary vote actually coming closing to mattering. So I'm fed up with "My primary vote should count!"
Well, yeah, so should mine, every time since 1976. But it hasn't. I should also be driving home in my flying car, but that ain't gonna happen either.
You know, the next person who tells me MI and FL voters were "disenfranchised," is gonna make me take hostages.
Amazing this is uttered on a liberal blog, of all places.

it was the republican legislature in florida that fucked the democratic primary voters there
.
(CNN) -- Sen. Barack Obama's campaign confirmed Saturday that he has resigned from the Chicago church where controversial sermons by his former pastor and other ministers created repeated political headaches for the Democratic frontrunner.
He picked a good day to announce it, since people who otherwise might hear about it are making themselves vomit of a Democratic Party rules committee meeting.
The fact that the Dems are in the spotlight on this deal means the party's in the limelight also.
Which is why it wouldn't bother me one bit to have it go to Denver. I don't believe it will hurt the Dems one bit to have the GOP not be able to spend all summer attacking "the" candidate. Let them wait till September.
So, we might end up with a compromise that doesn't, as a practical matter, resolve anything, and also sets a precedent for ignoring the rules whenever it becomes expedient to do so.
Only in the Democratic Party.
so why not just give it to the hillary supporters, declare victory for barack, and get on with it?
Answer: this is just another step in the Clinton campaign's plans to win the nomination at all costs.
No serious person believes that this is just about "fairness" for Hillary and the voters of Florida and Michigan. It's about winning at all costs.
Some people find that admirable. I think it's a fucked up disease rampant among Repukes and certain "Democrats" who suck my ass.
No it's not. It's to have the maturity and grace to recognize that certain fuck ups are not reparable.
That's my point.

This is the year the hurricane season and tornado season overlap.
AMBERGIS CAYE, Belize (AP) — A weak tropical storm formed Saturday off the Yucatan Peninsula and quickly made landfall at the Belize-Mexico border, dumping rain and kicking up surf.
The first named storm of the 2008 Atlantic Hurricane Season, Arthur was moving northwest across the Yucatan with maximum sustained winds near 40 mph (64 kph), according to the National Hurricane Center in Miami.
The storm formed one day before the official start of the season June 1, hitting land near the Mexican port city of Chetumal and Belize's Corozal city.

Dead people and Canadians can't vote.
So they're gonna seat the delegates with "half votes each"? WTF does that mean? Each delegate's vote counts as .5?
listen guys, 49% of democratic primary voters voted for hillary, 51% for barack
leaving out florida and michigan
if your idea of barack winning the nomination is to say the hillary voters can just go fuck themselves, i don't care what they think
then you have a very poor understanding of how to win elections
i concluded after the north carolina/indiana vote that barack had become the defacto nominee, and i am supporting him whole heartedly
i didn't like the booing by the hillary supporters at the meeting at all
this was not a good resolution
.
Please please acknowledge that the FL primary doesn't cpunt b/c the republicans made sure it wouldn't count. Obama might still win it, that would be great but please don't dismiss it.

Whine, whine, whine, whine, whine, whine ...
You see, it's the whining about Hillary and Bill that I and many other Democrats are really tired of. That's one of the wonderful side effects of watching Hillary Clinton's political career go up in nauseating billowing clouds of smoke: change of subject.
Negatives are negatives and hers are never going to change so for fuck's sake stop the goddamn whining.
What I think is that Obama will be the nominee, and that it is to his advantage to figure out how to generate as much enthusiasm from Dems who did not initially support him as possible, especially Hillary's supporters. Feeling shut out is not likely to lead one to action.
I worry as dave mentioned about his ability to stand up to GOP pressure tactics that will be naked and raw, and the more people he has behind him the easier it will be to tell the people trying to keep him from doing anything to shut up and sit down.
I simply don't see calling half the Dems who've voted and caucused so far crazy and idiots and selfish etc as a winning tactic for November.
Thread still going? I'm amazed. Seriously, Can we find a way to move forward w/ the Obama presidency and get the clinton supporters on board? You know, stop disrespecting her and them ...
Stunt woman,
sorry I.ve never heard hrc whine. her supporters (and me) get pissed off at how grotesque the media spin on her is. 1 of the things i like about her is that after all the @#$$%% that she has taken she just gets right back up and keeps on trying. and before you fall for that male media thing about ego - think that maybe she is fighting for what she believes in. Clearly she thrives on hard word and challenge - omg if only we'd had a pres like that in the past 7 years. I no its a lost cause and I am enthusiastic about supporting Obama but please back the fuck off on HRC.
Clearly the 'obomabot' are never going to concede that the opinion of 49% of democrats are of any value but for the rest of us, humor us and offer her the vp.
