what biased news account did you read to base your comment upon?
certainly not this article, which only talks about Michican, and about how the issue is potentially resolved. WHere is Obama claiming that Michican and Florida 'don't count'? In real fair and balanced reporting, or only in your biassed dreams?

It is common knowledge that Obama has fought to keep the votes in Michigan and Florida from being counted and has fought against a re-vote.

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- A top Michigan Democrat expressed frustration Wednesday with Sen. Barack Obama for not embracing a plan to conduct a revote of the state's Democratic primary.

'The road to a Democratic White House goes through Michigan and Florida,' Sen. Hillary Clinton says.

The source's comments come the same day Sen. Hillary Clinton accused her rival for the Democratic presidential nomination of being 'un-American' for not backing plans to hold a revote in the Michigan and Florida primaries -- a charge Obama rejects.

'WHere is Obama claiming that Michican and Florida 'don't count'?'

He is not claiming it, idiot, he is seeing that they do not count by his actions.

In a free society, votes count. Why do they make things so complicated so that only politicians and other bigwigs can screw things up for those who just want to have a small say in deciding different matters?

A greater person would have said, 'let them count'.

Then again, the majority of people in America want the popular vote to decide who our presidents will be; then again, congress and the lawmakers will not implement our wishes. It is revolting.
