Quote:WASHINGTON (Associated Press) -- Democrats decided Saturday to strip Florida of all its presidential convention delegates unless the state holds its primary later in the 2008 election calendar. The punishment would leave the fourth largest state without a vote for the nominee.

Quote: from http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2007/8/25/20918/2502 Adam B notes that a DNC committee has voted to strip Florida of its delegates unless it moves its primary back within the next 30 days. Any such decision will never stick. Never. Does anyone really think that Democrats will disenfranchise the delegates of a large swing state, whether it's Florida or Michigan? The DNC is powerless. All it has is bluster. And as soon as we have a nominee, the first thing that person will do is rescind any such decision.
