Bad News For Hillary: No Re-Vote In Florida

So that’s that.

Florida Democratic chairwoman Karen Thurman sends out an angry email abandoning hope of a re-vote in the state:

Last week, the Florida Democratic Party laid out the only existing way that we can comply with DNC Rules – a statewide revote run by the Party – and asked for input.

  Thousands of people responded. We spent the weekend reviewing your messages, and while your reasons vary widely, the consensus is clear: Florida doesn’t want to vote again.

  So we won’t.

This is a real setback for Hillary, who could have gotten both delegates, momentum, and—crucially—a stronger chance to claim a popular vote lead out of the revote.

Bad news for Hillary, sure, but there’s still Michigan.  And with Rev. Wright hanging from Obama’s neck like a millstone, anything can happen yet.
