This is another example of the clinton campaign trying to win at all cost. Obama did not campaign in FL. This was a national add that went to all 50 states. Obama spokesman Bill Burton says the cable networks told the campaign that it would be impossible to run national ads excluding only Florida, and that they consulted with South Carolina Democratic Party Chair Carol Fowler before buying the ad time. She said she didn’t consider the national buy to be a violation of the pledge.
So this was not an attempt to get primary votes from FL. The Obama camp new that they couldn’t get the delegates so why would they campaign there. This is the Clinton campaign crying like usual.

Where is the Clinton’s integrity? This election is not just about Bill and Hillary scoring a victory–this is about America, American’s and the future of this country in the world’s eyes. Do we want to show the world this is what we stand in this country-do everything and anything to get what you want? How can anyone trust these people to take over our country? I hope Americans are reading these articles and realizing that winning is nothing if you lose your soul and integrity doing it.

Please America, just say NO to the Clintons.

sick of the complaining, think again. Clinton, Kucinich, Dodd, and Gravel were all on the Michigan ballot for Democrats.

Much like Obama, your facts are fantasy.

This is clearly FOX news at its best. Take a comment that might create some tension in the democratic fight, explode it make it big, and protray anything off of the FOX political agenda in negative light. I’m sure that neither clinton nor OBAM really are making a big deal about this.

Get your real news from some place that won’t outFOX you.

Cheers.

Hmmm…DNC does not allow campaigns ads in Florida…..Hillary has big influence with DNC… is this Hillary’s rule or DNC’s rule to not allow ads in Florida? Talk about being a cheat!!! Shame on the Clintons….oops…they did say that they will win at all costs. It seems when Obama gets an edge in the polls then the Clintons start crying and whining. That is not a good persona to have when in the White House…..perhaps, Hillary could just do the banging of her shoes on the table like Krushev (sp?) did in the 60;s. Both Hillary and Obama need to act like grown ups and not like spoiled little children.

This is such BS by the Clintons. They never play fair or tell the truth themselves.

Obama bought NATIONAL time, not FLORIDA time. And it was probably not Obama, but rather supporter Oprah that bought and paid for the time. She did say that she would spend $100 million of her own money to place ads and carry on a one woman support of her chosen candidate. There is nothing in the rules about any individual buying advertising time to say what they want. She has the money honey and she can spend it like no other.

The Clintons need to grow up. Hillary cannot make it on her own anyway. She needs Billy Jeff to front for her. Is Billy Jeff going to take on the terrorists when Hillary fails and comes crwaling back bawling about how badly she was treated at the negotiation table? Yeah>

Get over it Clintons. Run your own campaign and let the others run theirs. Let the people decide.

Is this a tag team match or a presidential election? I am tired of hearing about the Clintons. Which one is running for president?

[...] The state was stripped of delegates and Democrats vowed not to campaign there.The Clinton campaign picked up on the Obama ad and pounced, saying on a conference call this was a violation of the pledge and that [...]

Is the Clinton website that shows her ads available in Florida?

I know this was posted earlier, but it requires re-iterating:

Yes, technically speaking Obama broke rules in campaigning in Florida,

BUT

Who was the only Democratic nominee to leave themselves on the ballot in Michigan, and now declares herself the “winner”?

I don’t recall Obama or Edwards pointing huge fingers at that one.
