...name is on the proposal, was negative. Democratic members of the Florida House of Representatives had already released a statement saying that they are "opposed to a mail-in campaign or any redo of any kind." On Wednesday, Geller reiterated that Florida's delegates be seated and released a poll of 600 Florida Democrats that found that one in four would not vote for the Democratic nominee for President if Florida was disenfranchised. "A Democratic nominee for President will not win in this state if our votes are not counted and it will cause tremendous damage to our congressional candidates...
...least one poll has Hillary Clinton surprisingly close given the state's demographics. An Insider Advantage poll of 412 registered voters taken on March 6 found Obama leading Clinton 46% to 40%.

And this has been the fundamental mistake at the heart of the Clinton campaign: a stifling literalism, which leads to caution and an overweening sense...

Clinton's victories in Texas and Ohio - states where her campaign estimates Obama and his allies outspent her by more than 2 to 1 on advertising alone - came only after she ramped up her assault on Obama. Her previous sweetness was getting her nothing but declining poll numbers. Clinton questioned her opponent's honesty after it was reported that an adviser had assured Canadian government officials that Obama didn't really mean his anti-free-trade rhetoric. "The old wink-wink," Clinton said scornfully. Four days before the Tuesday primaries, she went up with a chilling...
