Applesauce
Pat Cunningham offers an unabashedly liberal perspective on national politics. A note of caution: The language gets a litttle salty on some of the sites to which this blog links. So, don’t say you weren’t warned. By the way, this blog’s name is inspired by the Will Rogers quote, “All politics is applesauce.” |

Not that THIS changes anything. Barack Obama is still going to claim the nomination later this week.
UPDATE: The skinny on how Puerto Rico helps Obama is HERE.

CNN keeps reporting that the candidates followed the rules and did not campaign in Florida and Michigan.
But Hillary DID campaign in Florida she went to a fund raiser. She DID leave her name on the ballot in Michigan. What did she expect if there is nobody to run against. That is not a democratic process.
HILLARY IS A LIAR and a THIEF.
WE NEED CHANGE!
GO OBAMA!

Clint you arer an Idiot. She did not campaign in Florida. If you want to get real Obama ran TV adds there when she did not. Know what you are talking about before you speak and then don’t

It wasn’t against any rule to leave Hillary’s name on the Michigan ballot, nor was it mandatory that Obama leave the Michigan ballot. The DNC determined that however the vote came out it would result in no delegates. A similar situation existed for the Florida primary. There both Hillary and Obama left their names on that ballot. Obama lost both contests, and despite not being on the ballot in Michigan gained more delegates than if he had been. Hillary was absolutely screwed.

I hope hillary can find a way to do it. I don’t like Obama or McCain but would vote for McCain over Obam..

If Hillary is so irrelevant, then tell me why hasn’t she been finishing a distant second like Ron Paul did in the Republican contests? If Obama is so immensely popular and if he has it all sealed up, then why wasn’t there a HUGE turnout in Puerto Rico and why didn’t he win?? Oh, forgot, Hillary also beat him recently in Kentucky, West Virginia, and Indiana? Now why is that? If Obama has so much momentum, shouldn’t he have won in these recent contests?
