They will not go quietly:

"I say that not counting Florida and Michigan is changing a central governing rule of this country."

Then this:

"We've got to change the way we nominate presidents for a lot of reasons," she said. "I personally believe these caucuses are terribly unrepresentative ... [And] I think that what's happened with Florida and Michigan raises serious questions about the principles of our party."

And this:

In an intentional bit of symbolism, Clinton's three campaign stops will be in Palm Beach, Broward, and Dade counties – the three jurisdictions where Democrats allege voters were disenfranchised during the 2000 presidential election.

She will try - by systematic distortion, deception and distraction - to turn her defeat into an indictment of the nominee and the process which all agreed to in advance. This is about de-legitimizing Obama. When will Gore step in? Someone has to.
