Of course as usual, all we hear reported in MSM news is that rules are rules.  It never ceases to amaze me how the critical thinking ability of MSM reporting amounts to waiting until someone else thinks of the question later.  Probably sometime around a year from now, someone will write a retrospective piece, earning an award for journalism, about how reporters once again failed to ask the simple question when it mattered - 'uh...btw...about those rules?'  Maybe it'll even become a best selling book, reviewed in depth on C-Span 'Book Notes'.

The DNC can say all it wants to that the campaigns in FL and MI were handicapped because of the early primary issue, and therefore that the voting result such as it is today is not a true representation; but the truth is that the campaigns would not have been handicapped in the first place, except that the DNC rules were enforced in a blatantly selective manner.  Rules are not really so much rules as lame excuses, when the enforcement consequences are this selective.

Unfortunately for us regular Democratic registered voters, in the general election, next year's retrospective best selling book might just be pre-empted by this whole subject as a talking point for the RNC, as a way to accuse Democrats of being un-democratic.
