RNC strips 5 states of half their delegates

This is why RNC and the Rebuplicans are seen as more effective leaders. Instead of pandering with the violators, punish them once and for all. DNC will feel the pulse of the consequences before taking a stand......Hillary Clinton model of leadership....I was going to vote NO before voting YES

Ooops jerry, the RNC is pulling a Howard Dean on your party. Does this mean Howard wasn't wrong to try to enforce party rules and discipline? Or does this mean the GOP has turned its back on the voters of those states?

Opps. This makes Guliani's comments (about not disenfranchising Florida voters) at the last debate seem a little bit against what the RNC thinks.

Those delegates will also have all of their records searched by warrantless eavesdropping.

It seems to me the RNC went beyond by punishing New Hampshire and South Carolina--how will that affect Colbert??? That's like smacking the South, something the dems could not get away with.

On a related note, I think we've had enough Southern Presidents recently.

Bobo - FL was stripped of ALL of its delegates by the DNC shortly after it announced it was moving its primary. Much, much sooner than the RNC has punished these states.

Nuanced:

I'm beginning to wonder about both the RNC and the DNC. This does have all the markings of the screwiest election in history. By the time this is all done, I wonder if anybody will have any delegates to send to the conventions and the conventions should be ended as of today!

Just proves that Republicans are only half as stupid as Democrats.

jerry, I agree we should end it as of today. Forget the campaigns, debates, primaries and elected delegates. Just go to convention now with the pre-selected super delegates of party bigshots and let them pick the nominee. It would save a lot of money.

Jerry...I don't usually agree with you but this time you are right on the money. It has gotten so confusing and I think it is going to get worse before it gets better. Maybe they should stop conventions. This is what I can't stand... The conventions that this electon will not be true conventions because delegates have been cut and states jockeying to see who holds primarys first. It has become a big mess if you ask me.

I thought the great, wise, and benevolent voters in New Hampshire deserved to decide the outcome of the primaries because they were fifty times smarter than the rest of us.
