Will we see an onslaught
of Democratic Party shenanigans?
By
Dr. Sherman N. Miller
When I think about
the Democrats pondering the idea of having the folks in Florida and
Michigan recast their primary votes it sounds like a young male
hollering, “slips” while shooting marbles in yesteryear. The young man
knew he might get another chance to shoot his marble because things did
not go well on his first try. In essence, the Democrats would give the
Florida and Michigan voters another try at getting their votes included
because their leadership slipped up the first time around by their
attempting to run roughshod over the party rules.
The real concern is
that Democratic Party hacks, who may be committed to a particular
candidate, present an image of asking wolves to guard a henhouse. It is
a joke to believe that a Democratic Party in-house voting effort will be
nonbiased when many of the officials are known to have a biased view.
A new vote idea
sounds much like a way to give the super delegates cover in hopes of not
leaving the Democratic Party split going into the November General
Election that is a virtual guarantee that Senator John Mc Cain will be
the next US President. Thus, the
more I think about the advent of an onslaught of Democratic Party
shenanigans to appoint their Presidential standard bear for the 2008
General Election the more I am beginning to prepare to say, “President
John Mc Cain.”
