Michigan and Florida: Please let us know what the story is. ..again.
I'm not feeling great that Clinton and Kucinich are the only viable candidates in Michigan.
And do you know about Florida?

1. Both Florida and Michigan
don't matter for us. The DNC suspended their delegates. Michigan due to the fact they tried to move up their primary to Jan 15. Florida for trying to schedule a Jan 29 primary. Only NH, Iowa, Nevada and South Carolina are allowed to have their primaries/caucuses before Feb 5.

3. You are correct with one minor detail
The results will be posted and televised nationally. Psychology.

4. So...
It's essentially free air time for Hillary because there is a 100% chance she will win that state.

2. I'm in Michigan. Why shouldn't I vote in the Repug primary? Romney scares the shit out of me.
In the Dem primary, I get a choice between Kucinich and Hillary.

Almost forgot, We can also pick someone called "uncommitted."

Tanking Romney sounds like more fun.

More patriotic, too.

6. Is Michigan an open primary?
Florida is closed and it is too late for Democrats to re-register as Republicans. If they let you vote in the republican primary, go for it. (but I think Romney will be the easiest to beat, so if I were you, I'd vote for him!)
