Other Florida Democrats -- led by Hillary Clinton supporters -- are turning to public protests to keep the pressure on the national party.
Rallies are planned Saturday in seven Florida cities, including Miami and Fort Lauderdale, to demand that the national party count Florida's delegates. Hundreds of activists are also expected to ride buses to Washington to rally Wednesday.
''This has to do with our civil rights,'' said Millie Herrera, a potential Clinton convention delegate and the president of the Hispanic Democratic Caucus of Florida. ``No one has the right to invalidate our votes.''
Silly untermenschen! Clinging to the franchise! More power to them!
Needless to say, I mean "more power to them" quite literally...
NOTE "Uncreative untermenshen" is, of course, a play on "creative class." In the real world, there are all sorts of creative people in all walks of life, beyond the Village wannabees who have to keep combing the Cheetohs out of their scraggly goatees... Via TalkLeft

I prefer "leisure class"
because if you live a leisurely life, you don't have to worry about health care and rising gas prices and what not. And let's face it, all they do is repeat bogus claims over and over and pretend that it's earth shatteringly insightful each and every time. You have to live a leisurely life to be able to occupy your time with no substance.
Kicking the Can
The DNC schedules the FL/MI appeals for May 31.
As Ambinder notes, the date may be too late to help Hillary Clinton. But, hey, I'm sure that's just a coincidence. http://marcambinder.theatlantic.com/arch...
As I said in my post on unity, any failure in November is a failure of the party and the leaders must be held accountable.
May 31
What will Clinton need to do to not have that deadline be too late? Win IN and keep from getting smoked in NC?
Blerg.
why is it too late?
isn't Puerto Rico in June?
Untermenschen
This really describes the racist attitude coming from Obama, Kos, and other goons. Well,the ubermenschen put us in our place and we shouldn't complain we are untermenschen.
Is this the Democratic party? Even Jefferson is turning in his grave.

If the hearing is May 31
what are the odds that there is a decision before the end of voting. Meaning Obama gets to close out the voting with the narrative that Florida and Michigan won't count.
