Wow:

Florida and Michigan played a valued role in this battle, proving they would risk their representation in order to demand a say in our nominee. It was a gamble that didn’t pay off, obviously, and there’s great irony in the fact that a later primary would’ve made them that much more influential this cycle.

But the original sentiment still applies — they risked huge in order to demand a say, and that sentiment will guide big changes in our nominating calendar in the future.

So regardless the fact that Michigan’s and Florida’s contests will end up being non-determinative to the nomination, their sacrifices will ultimately help create a system that gives more Americans a voice in the process.

Gee, thanks, Lord Kos!

I can think of only one word that describes the combination of insider condescension, wonkiness, and “Get over it” putting-the-boot-in-ness:

Broder-esque.

Well done, Boyz on the Blogs!
