Howard Dean is no hero and I'm sick of people parroting

the FL MI lies over Primary Gate.

This is the way I understand it and it is not that complicated.

The Republican-controlled legislature moved the date (by only a few days, btw) by attaching it to a rider providing a paper trail for electronic ballots. One would think Dean would see how important verified voting in FL is, but thankfully at least the Fl Dems did. They had to vote yes or lose out on the paper trail.

The national Democrats got all bent out of shape because sacred Iowa and New Hampshire cannot be challenged by states where people live holding primaries. They asked the FL dems to agree that their results would not count. They refused, so Brazile and Co. stripped them of 100% of the delegates even though party rules only allow them to strip 50% (the Republicans stripped FL of 50%), so much for the sacred rules.

The DNC appears to be infected with manipulators and/or liars

Btw, in MI, they had an agreement not to move up their primary, but NH had the same agreement. NH moved their primary, the DNC did nothing. MI assumed the agreement was off and moved up theirs as well, the DNC went postal on them.
