The latest possibility thats been floated by the DNC would be for FL and MI to hold caucuses sometime next month.
In any case, if they cant come up with something that is agreeable to both the DNC and FL/MI, then the final decision wont be made until the convention, where the full body will need to ratify the decision to exclude the FL/MI delegations, or not.

So you are asking taxpayers in 2 states to absorb the cost of another election because the DNC chose to not honor those states right to choose when they vote?
Doesn't seem fair to the taxpayer and I would most probably truly not vote for a Dem then.

Hilary showed me one thing that Obama didn't, that's the forth sight to know that by telling 2 large states their votes don't matter you may lose those states in Nov. Hilary at least acknowledged those voters, Obama and the rest of the DNC chose to ignore and try to dictate to the people.
Sorry, I never thought I'd say this, I swore I would never vote for Hilary... but she earned my respect because of this and she is someone I can now vote for, I will never vote for Obama or Edwards because of this.
I just wonder why the GOP didn't make such an issue out of all this.
