Caucuses Are Undemocratic, Says Rendell

Filed under:

Fast Eddie just got faster

I can hear my grizzled, conservative friends bemoaning this. “Hey look! Now Rendell wants to spend tons of money in other states! What a guy!”

The only real solution is to stick with the decision that was made and not count Florida or Michigan votes. It’s too late. They should not have been foolish and moved up their primaries.

On a side note: Rendell really wants out of Harrisburg.

Cannot discount Caucus voters

There is no way that you can discount all of the Democrats who caucused for Obama. He has a 50 state strategy.

Rendell has a clear agenda

Rendell has a clear agenda .. he wants Hillary nominated at the Convention.

What a shocker that a Clinton backer would say or do anything to aid Hillary in climbing through the bathroom window to get that nomination … NOT!

Hillary is so desperate that: *Hillary said McCain would be better than Obama.

*Hillary said she can get pledged delegates to switch their votes … now that IS desperate!

*Hillary’s campaign manager just sent out a memo to Obama’s Campaign Manager, David Plouffe, saying “In Florida and Michigan, nearly 2.5 million Americans made their voices heard and participated in primary elections. We think the results of those primaries were fair and should be honored.” ... Say WHAT??!!??

*Hillary has attempted to minimize the significance of Barack Obama’s success in winning more than twice as many states as Senator Clinton, her campaign’s supporters have attempted to diminish the importance of the states where Senator Obama has prevailed.

*Hillary’s gal pal tries to allude that Obama is “lucky” but the fact is, Obama has earned the votes from Hillary’s FORMER base … yup, white men are overwhelmingly voting for Obama across in 30 states!!!

The list goes on.

Point is, Hillary is trying to steal the election even though her tactics very well could DESTROY the unity within the Democratic party that Obama was able to bring to life for white, Hispanic, Latin and black men & women in our party.

Shame on Hillary Clinton

i agree

they are less democratic than a straight up and down vote. Michigan and fla have primary election voting and not caucuses and therefore should have the same. Cacuses do dienfranchise people such as shift workers and elderly people.
