Too bad, Florida and Michigan Democrats, but you don't count!

The national Democratic chairman in Washington has actually told his loyal party members in Florida and Michigan that they might as well not vote in their early presidential primaries, because their votes won't matter.

The two states had moved up their primaries to be part of the early primary bonanza that will decide the presidential nominee of the party, but now the voters are told that their votes will simply be thrown out.

How typical of Washington to ignore the people.

Trapped in a Broken System

Fred Thompson's in the race now. And his online video message was unity, unity, unity. "There's a courage that comes in unity" was an appeal applied to issue after issue. And then he headed for Iowa to confront his party's base.

It's not just Washington that polarizes our politics. The parties' primary process, always starting in Iowa, divides the candidates into those who "believe" and those who "mouth." Can he pass the abortion test? Can he pass the gay marriage test? Can he pass the guns right test? Those that do can be nominated. Those that don't can't.
