Upsetting things

According to the Huffington Post, The Clinton and her supporters are going to use their majority on the Democrats' Rules and Bylaws Committee later in the month to push through a rules change that would force seating the Florida and Michigan delegations, presumably in a manner favorable to her campaign.

This was the Clinton campaign's message to the Post after they ran a story on the above possibility:

"There is no secret plan.... The Clinton campaign has been vocal in stating that the votes of 2.5 million people must be respected. Hardly a day goes by when a Clinton official doesn't publicly declare that the votes of Michigan and Florida count and that the delegations from those states should be seated."
...downplaying the shocking implications of such a move- all in the interest of democracy, of course.
