Why does the DNCC hate Florida?

Months ago, Howard Dean assured Florida Democrats a hotel has been set aside for them for the national convention in Denver, only the DNC wouldn't reveal it. So far, that still stands. Since the DNC on May 31 agreed to seat Florida's delegates repeated follow-up e-mails have yielded no info on FL's top secret hotel:

Why do you hate FL, Natalie? :) A bad sunburn? A lousy Spring break? Painful memories of early bird dinners with Gramps? Something is obviously haunting you or you would have shot me the name of our lousy hotel by now.

RE: FL Hotel Assignment

Not to mention a traumatic experience at Epcot Center! Please know, I am still working on getting the details for you. I check in on it daily and expect to have something to share with you soon. Many apologies again.

We're still waiting.

So besides being anti-taxpayers (they want to raise gas taxes by $1.50 per gallon) they hate Disney too - one of Florida's biggest tourist draws!!!

Remember THAT in November!

Remember WHY tourists are important - they DRIVE down here and SPEND money - paying lots and lots of sales taxes!!!

And the DIMS are doing whatever they can to keep them from here!!!

Remember THAT in November!!!

Stay home. Save gas. Plant a garden so you can eat during the food crisis in the world cause by Republican outsourcing, globalization, factory farms, altered "seeds", pushing small farmers out of work to profit agribusiness which depends on ONE type crops -- easily destroyed by any type specific crop disease outbreaks.

Variety is not only the "spice" of life, it is necessity to survive cycles of normal weather, insect movement, disease spread.

Buy American. Plant American. Make a victory garden. Eschew foreign crop results in your grocery store.

Most of all - do NOT shop in big box stores that put local small businesses out of work. Keep our dollars closer to home.

Democrats are smart enough to get online and arrange to stay with local Denver Democrats. I've seen it already on other blogs.

Both parties must work on voting out neanderthal party leaders who still sell their souls to big corporate donors. Example -- barbecue sauce changed empty chair Charlie and flip flop McCain into Florida oil drilling advocates. No cheerleading -- no campaign funds.

Obama taught the Democrats how to let the little people fund campaigns. No need to kiss corporate patootie. No need to make oil lease speculators like the Bushbots even richer speculators.

Hope Florida Republicans decide to take THEIR party back from insider wall street traders, plutocrats, and power brokers.

Empty chair charlie and the bushbot farm team pols -- need to discover the 21st Century.

Too bad Jebco refused to obey the law we passed to put in high speed rail instead of spending all that cash to terrify voters of the "estimated cost."

We'd look SMART for a change if we had high speed rail to get tourists here WITHOUT all that "HIGH COST" gasoline.

We'd look SMART to help our seniors not need to risk lives driving too long.

Now the DNC hates Florida and Disney? What next? Baseball? Apple Pie? Mom?

You ever stayed at the Coronado Springs resort? That place is a dump!

Looks like they ticked-off Adam (Hillary) Smith again... well, there goes another to McDeath!

12:21 - In case you haven't noticed, Jeb is no longer Governor. You are an idiot.

That's ok! I had the DNCC more than they hate FL. They can take Bob graham and go to hell!

The arrogance of the party insiders is astounding. Sure anybody who puts the time into something wants to control it, and that's fine when you are talking a middle school float committee, but when votes are involved the rule can't apply--but it has.

State legislatures have always had and will always have the power to set primary dates, but the party committees decided it was their prerogative to set the primary schedule and they were just self-important enough to enforce it with the disenfranchisement of millions of voters.

Why did they want to set the schedule: to ensure some voters in other states mattered most. Arrogant in the extreme!

And we are dumb enough to put up with it!!!!!

In case you gormless nits hadn't noticed the election of a president is a public thing--its the highest public office in the land not a prom committee.

One-person one-vote by law for every American vote, including primary votes. Support Bill Nelson's proposal.

It is a miserable shame how complacent and jaded we and the local leaders of the press have become. If we let the disenfranchisement of millions by a party committee stand as part of our national traditions, how long can we even pretend to be free?

But alas--the news is what the people want to think about, not what they need to think about to maintain a democratic process. Nelson's proposals were only worth a 5B presentation by the Times and that following Phil Gailey writing that Nelson was a "braying jackass" for pushing the DNC to count Florida votes.

Who are we? Who is the Times?

wow -- that headline wasn't misleading AT ALL! please stop taking journalism queues from fox news mr smith
