*Dems' Dead Letter Office
The Florida Democratic Party has decided against a mail-in vote to appease the national party. Good. Also good that some local Democratic fundraisers have decided: No delegates, no money for the nominee.
What next? How about seating Florida's delegates? Florida voters got to see all the names on the ballot Jan. 29. They chose Sen. Hillary Clinton.
Michigan does need a revote, because most of the Democratic candidates at the time of the original vote were taken off the ballot. Florida does not. A formula is in place if the Democratic National Committee wants to re-allocate delegates. Any other method will cost lots of tax dollars to Floridians. Of course, add Florida Gov. Charlie Crist's support of Sen. John McCain to the equation - right now, Crist is the most popular politician in the state - and the Dems can put Florida in the loss column (to quote one-time Florida Marlins broadcaster Joe Angel) come November.
