  •  IVery few in MI are pissed off (4+ / 0-)

    I live here, I talk to Dems constantly.
    Don't no anyone who's "pissed off."
    Maybe a few of HRC's most rabid supporters.

    Make that change.

      I've seen many Kossaks from Michigan comment that the whole "pissed off" MI Democrats thing is a myth.  It seems to be a Hillary talking point that is not based in reality.

      •  In MI also (0+ / 0-)

        I live in MI also. The "pissed off" thing is not a myth at all. Maybe hardcore progressives aren't pissed but a lot of swing voters and independents sure are!

        Now if Obama and the dems can find a way to seat the MI delegation I think things won't be affected. However, it could be bad for the dems in the fall if the convention rolls around and all the local papers and local news is talking about how we were locked out of the convention.

    •  I live in Florida- a LOT of Dems here are angry (3+ / 0-)

      I hope Gov Dean and the Rules committee don't totally cave.  Rules have to be honored.   However, I do hope they find a compromise that allows some of the Florida delegation to be seated, since all of the candidates' names were on our ballots at least.  Michigan is a bit trickier, but I hope for some viable compromise there as well.

      I also hope that the 2012 primary schedule makes more sense and in a way that doesn't have states try to figure out how to game the system

    •  I think it's mainly the vociferous (0+ / 0-)

      wing of Clinton supporters in Florida who are angry.
