This does not bode well. A Democratic delegate, who made a remark questioning Barack Obama in a private conversation, winds up being threatened with losing her convention seat.
An e-mail sent from the political director of the Colorado Democratic Party threatened the status of a national delegate, alleging she made "disparaging public remarks" about Sen. Barack Obama.Sacha Millstone of Boulder said that her comments were critical, but they were not public.Millstone acknowledged she was frustrated over how the Obama campaign was treating delegates who supported Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton and told a fellow delegate, in what she believed was a private e-mail exchange, that she was not sure she could vote for Obama at the Democratic National Convention later this month.
Note: I included a caption with full details and credit to ABC News 7 in Denver, but the system would not save it.

That does not sound to Democratic! And then they say China in not allowing free votes!
THe Florida vote scandal from G. W. Bush first run for office, not this! Can one actually still trust the electoral system and the upholding of democracy? Or is just a show and a farce of sorts!

The FL election proved to be a Bush win.
Get over it.

I hear from Denver they are also isolating black and gay activists. They have the gays divided into 6 groups depending on preferences, transgender, cross dressers, etc. THAT IS ABSOLUTELY NUTS. What are they doing? Don't let America know who is for Obama?

PEP, I like this story. It's good stuff. This is gross, outrageous! How did they get hold of her email? the other delegate did report her! Has Obama already got wiretapping and internet oversight privileges along with 7 months earlier than any other candidate in history Secret Service protection?
This is beginning to sound like a conspiracy of vast proportions! You can't criticize a candidate! WHAT!?! This is NOT Democratic at all! I'm shocked by the DNC. Good catch, Pep.

Obama is deeply invloved with the running of the DNC at this point. Isolation of groups is to keep the mid-west states from seeing his true supporters. Keeping Hillary at bay is to show the democrats all support Obama. They will nominate Hillary to keep legitimate protesters at bay but it will be a charade.

Who put him in charge? I don't support him. Did Howard Dean get paid off? Now they won't let Colorado Democrats get the tickets to the Mile-High event they were promised unless they give Obama's campaign 'volunteer' hours (before the convention?)!
Excuse me, is this the US?
