- Party seats Fla., Mich. delegations
  Posted by Jeff from MSNBC
  Democratic Party leaders agreed Saturday seat Michigan and Florida delegates with half votes into this summer's convention with a compromise that left Barack Obama on the verge of the nomination but riled Hillary Rodham Clinton backers who threatened to fight to the August convention.

- Sources: DNC Florida Compromise Reached, Michigan Deal On The Table
  Posted by Jeff from Huffington Post
  The Michigan compromise, details of which must still be worked out, would give the majority of delegates to Clinton, who won 55 percent of the vote in the state's primary. Those with knowledge of the RBC's inner dealings say the potential deal involves all of the candidates who took their names off the state's ballot voluntarily agreeing that the now-uncommitted delegates would go to Obama. The Illinois Democrat, accordingly, would receive 40 percent of delegates. Clinton nets roughly nine delegates on Obama under this scenario.

- M.S. Bellows, Jr.: Clinton's Open Letter To Obama On MI and FL
  Posted by Jeff from Huffington Post
  Hillary Clinton has lost a ton of my respect over the past few months and continues to lose the remainder of it. An open letter like this isn't a way to solve a problem, it's just confrontational. She's made the Florida and Michigan issue worse with her intellectual dishonesty over the past 2 months. The Clinton's behavior is just sad and more sad.

- Michigan iPod proposal influenced by Apple's dime?
  Posted by Jeff from Appleinsider
  The trip, which was reportedly funded in part by Apple, led to a $36 million proposal by Dillon last week to provide all Michigan students with iPods that they could use to download lectures and educational materials. Representatives for Dillon did not provide details on the trip or say whether Apple paid for all or part of it, but Gillard is reported to have expressed his belief that the iPod maker covered at least a portion of the costs.

It doesn’t matter if he lets her have these. She still can’t win. It’s all a farce
