Trailing Obama in the nomination race after losing eight straight contests to the Illinois senator, Clinton and her advisers suggested hundreds of "superdelegates" -- party activists and elected lawmakers attending the Democratic convention in August -- were not bound by the results of voting in their states, US media reported.

I fail to see how Hillary stating the truth means her wanting to rig the election.

Well, Superdelegates can and will do whatever the fuck they want. I don't like it, but that's the way it is. Many will, however, vote with their state. Their jobs may hinge on it.

I do, however, strongly disagree that delegates from Florida and Michigan should count. I disagree with the Dem party stripping of their delegates, but candidates got their names removed from the ballots, declined to campaign there, etc. BASED on that knowledge. To restore their delegates after the fact would be profoundly unfair.

I would argue that it's more unfair to deprive millions of people of their votes in the election.

They'd have to re-vote. I'm pretty sure Obama wasn't even on the ballot in Michigan (maybe Florida too). It's a little dumb that they got stripped of their delegates, but the state parties KNEW that when they set the dates for their primaries.
