Mori,
I agree with you here in that I abhor Hillary's usurpation of prior common
agreements of the DNC. The reckoning of Michigan and Florida Primary votes is
injurious to her campaign and I encourage her to stick to the common rules.
For Democracy's sakes.
May I share here that I am proud of the Kennedys, Caroline and Teddy, for
endorsing Barack Obama as Democratic Party nominee.

Yero,
Clinton has never lead in the delegate count. She won the popular vote in
Nevada, but lost the delegate count to Obama in Nevada. She has 12 delegates
from Nevada to Obama's 13 delegates.
Here is the total delegate count (excluding Michigan)
Obama 63
Clinton 48
Edwards 26
Michigan is still in dispute since the DNC stipulated that they won't sit
their delegates for violating party rules vis-a-vis the primary date. Obama and
Edwards decided to take their names off the ballot to strengthen the
national party's rules which were later upheld by a court. Recently Clinton has
hinted at sitting delegates from Michigan and Florida. This is undermining the
DNC...but the win at any cost mentality of bubba and his wife is legendary. No
surprises there.
Most people believe that once a candidate secure enough delegates to win the
nomination, Michigan and Florida delegates will be allow to attend the
convention. However the clinton campaign's move to try to pad their count with
disputed delegates will not wash.

Heh...it's a beautiful moment out there in DC. News is that Senator Tedd
finally endorsed Bama.
Correction: It was clinton that won the delegates in Nevada. In the overall
after the SC primaries, now Obama leads both in delegates and votes' counts.
It is a quite a momentum there.
Yero...

voting population in any country, so far, Obama’s votes are coming from that
class. Clinton on the other hand is widely supported by the elderly. Obama’
s message is very powerful. You can see how in Nevada, he won in the number
of delegates but fell below Clinton in the total precincts’ counts. John
Kerry’s endorsement coupled of with the many others will no doubt give his
campaign a flavor. I am sure Kerry didn’t mean any harm to the Edwards but
the least one would have expected as at now would be a neutral stance. I am
sure others will disagree including myself. Caroline Kennedy did well by her
endorsement of Obama, for her father was a man driven by passion; he won
my heart after I followed his nuclear stance. He believes if one nation
should have it then all should be entitled to it. I can imaginarily see a
brilliant Senator Tedd Kennedy endorsing Obama in the near future. > > The big bang
