Florida primary? Anyone think this might happen? Obama leads Clinton by about 30 delegates?

after all the primaries. Then the DNC decides to let the Florida delegates count (they do not now because FL moved up their primary). Clinton takes the nomination from Obama?

    No one knows what will happen. They may seat the Michigan and Florida delegation. They may not count their votes or they may count part or all of them. If Hillary gets the nomination without these two states, I don't mind if they go back and let their delegation votes be counted, however, they shouldn't be allowed to sway a national election.

    They should. Why the heck does Idaho have more say than the many more people of Florida this primary? It's ridiculous. The DNC should have made a decision like the Republicans and still allowed SOME delegates to count.

    But I think they should do it now rather than later. Obama supportes will be mad. Even though they all should be questioning the fairness that Florida voters have no voice. It's not their fault their primary was moved up.

    There is simply no way the DNC will allow there to be no representation from Florida and Michigan. So yes there will be delegates but how they will chosen is yet to be seen. Allowing the original rimary to stand after saying it wouldn't would be backing down so I believe there will be another vote.

    Clinton will start favorite but there is a lot of water under the bridge since then.

    The funny part is, Michigan and Florida moved thier primaries to increase thier influence. For the Dems at least it may have the desired result as they will probably serve as a tie breaker at the end.
