So since Clinton is the only Democrat on the ballot in Michagan, what does it mean? /nt

[still_one]

[Mass]

1. Kucinich is not a democrat? Since when?

[still_one]

14. didn't mean the way it came out. Just curious how this comes out in the wash

since the state violated the DNC rules

[robcon]

2. The primary means nothing, zilch, nada, zero.

n/t

[Romulox]

4. Incorrect. The Republicans are having a vigorous primary where they are debating Mich.'s economy.

[NNN0LHI]

11. Good on them Repigs

They are always very concerned about how the economy is trickling down onto us.

Don

[Romulox]

12. I haven't heard a PEEP from Obama, Clinton, et al about Michigan's economy.

So I guess the Party is ceding these voters to the Republicans. It's an idiotic move.

[madrchsod]

5. you forgot-----nil------

[still_one]

15. so what happens to the delegates? /nt

[RiverStone]

25. Who gets MI delegates - or does nobody ever get them?...n/t

[Romulox]

3. It's like the groundhog's shadow: it means 4 more years of NAFTA, H1B, "free trade"...nt

[sunonmars]

6. Well considering a lot of people have no idea......

that Michigans delegates were stripped. A huge Hillary percentage tonight might provide an unexpected momentum for her. If Hillary gets over 50% then i suspect a lot of people unlike us will just look at that fact and ignore anything else.

[still_one]

16. I am one of those who didn't realize that either. However, since the main focus

is on the repukes by the media, and since they WILL have to report why Obama and Edwards aren't on the ballot, I am sure it may not mean as much

However, if Kucinich wins the primary, that would be news

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

7. Kucinich not only is on the ballot, he's actively campaigning

I'm sick and tired of people assuming that the nomination is only between two people.

[still_one]

17. I worded it wrong, give me a break. I was curious about the delegates

I realize now that since MI moved its primary, its delegates have been taken away

I would be quite happy if Dennis won the primary, or for that matter the nomination

[MethuenProgressive]

8. Nuttin.

[The Straight Story]

9. That if Obama wins it, it still was not vote fraud and we should just move on

:rofl:

Sorry, couldn't resist.

[skipos]

10. I am voting UNCOMMITTED. Gore, Edwards, Obama, Richardson, Biden supporters should do the same.

That is what it means.

[timtom]

13. Allow me to correct your statement

"...Clinton, Kucinich, and Gravel are the only Democrats on the ballot in Michigan..."

[MonkeyFunk]

20. I thought Dodd was on there, too

[timtom]

21. I don't believe so.

I got my info from Randi's broadcast yesterday. A google search doesn't give a clear list (a hasty search, that is).

[MonkeyFunk]

23. why would anybody believe Randi Rhodes

over a simple google search?

[knitter4democracy]

22. He wasn't on mine.

It was Kucinich, Hillary, Gravel, and Undecided.

[MonkeyFunk]

24. then you had a fake ballot and should

report it to the authorities immediately.

http://www.michigan.gov/documents/sos/PriPresBal_final2_218616_7.pdf

[MonkeyFunk]

26. Have you called your state's Secretary of State yet?

Her number is 1-888-767-6424


Please let us know what happens.

[knitter4democracy]

28. Terri Lynn Land, the one who wants to be governor?

She's a Republican.

I honestly don't think it was fake. I think he just wasn't on there.

[MonkeyFunk]

29. Seriously

if you had a ballot without Chris Dodd on it, it was fradulent, and you should report it.

[knitter4democracy]

30. You know, the more I think about it, I remember five lines.

Kucinich
Hillary
Gravel

Undecided.

That must mean he was on there but I didn't pay attention, given I was voting for Kucinich. Weird. Normally, I'm more careful. It's been a bad day, though, considering my vote means nothing to my party.

[Pastiche423]

31. Thank you for your vote!

I'm afraid I won't have the opportunity when May 20 comes around.

[arthritisR_US]

18. I thought Kicinich was on the ballot too. Whisper campaigns were instrumental

in ending McCain's bid for the presidency in 2004 so why not start a positive one for Kicinich for President? As long as people buy into the media mantra that he's unelectable he won't be. All that's needed is to reach a critical mass, a tipping point by the people. I think all the Democratic candidates are superb and so do not ascribe to the notion of counting any one of them out!

[cooolandrew]

19. It would be a joy to see Kucinich win at least one state.

[Kucinich4America]

27. It would be more than a joy.

If Dennis wins Michigan today, that technically makes him the front-runner. Yeah, there's the question of whether the delegates count or not, but the fact is that he would win a bigger state than either Hillary or Obama have.

And THAT is why the DLC'ers are frantically spinning this "vote uncommitted" and "vote Romney" horseshit.
