Can anybody restate this, please? I think there's some information in the following quote and the quote imbedded in it, but I'm missing it.

Quote:
This seating of half delegates forMichigan and Florida when it was revoked that democract will not allow anyone to sit?

Last August. The meeting of the Rules Committee is on C-SPAN. The party rules called for a 50% loss of delegates, but candidates allowed to campaign and 50% delegates seated -- just like the Republicans.

An Obama delegate to the rules committee made a motion to change the rule and Obama superdelegate Donna Brazille rammed it through the committee -- disenfranchising two critical large states in the November election. The Democrats lost the 2000 election by 200 votes in Florida. It's truly insane.
