The plot thickens folks. Just when you thought the split in the Dem party could not be worse - it does

I wonder if the liberal media will give glowing coverage to this protest as they do when libs march in the streets against abortion, or the war


Clinton Supporters Prepare for DNC Protest in Washington

WASHINGTON — The Democratic presidential race is heading into a fractious end game as supporters of Hillary Rodham Clinton mobilize for a protest Saturday to demand that the party count two outlawed primaries that favored her.

Protesters planned to rally outside the Washington hotel where the party’s rules committee will tackle the vexing question of how to punish Michigan and Florida without completely disenfranchising Democratic primary voters from those states.

At least several busloads of Clinton supporters were anticipated from Florida and perhaps scores of people from Michigan as well as demonstrators from various parts of the country. Barack Obama’s campaign discouraged a counterprotest, although his supporters vied with Clinton backers for the limited public seats inside the meeting.

Among the scheduled speakers at the rally are Clinton fundraiser Elizabeth Bagley; two members of Congress who back the New York senator, Reps. Stephanie Tubbs Jones of Ohio and Corrine Brown of Florida; and Kim Gandy, president of the National Organization for Women. Her group’s political action committee has endorsed Clinton.
