The DNC Rules Committee (whose members I have met before) are going to remove Flordia’s votes from the national convention if they go ahead and hold their presidential primary on January 29th, the same day as South Carolina.

I say good. The current plan of Iowa, Nevada, New Hampshire, and then South Carolina is a great plan. (Well, I wouldn’t have put Nevada in there, but Harry Reid (D-Nevada) IS the Senate Majority Leader.)

Now I am well aware that there is a law on the books in Flordia that puts a general election for both the republicans and democrats on that date, but that is no excuse to defy the DNC’s rules… even if it does mean less of a turn-out.

So hear-hear to the DNC and their threat to remove Flordia’s votes at the convention! Each state needs to play by the rules, and Flordia is no exception.
