Clinton: Flipping Pledged Delegates!
When Clinton was asked how in the hell she plans on garnering the Democratic Party’s nomination, she responded by saying,
“I just don’t think this is over yet,” she said, “and I don’t think that it is smart for us to take a position that might disadvantage us in November. And also remember that pledged delegates in most states are not pledged. You know, there is no requirement that anybody vote for anybody. They’re just like superdelegates.”
Now, according to the Clinton camp, they’re not engaging in any attempt to flip pledged delegates. I guess they’re just giving them a friendly reminder.
Clinton senior adviser Harold Ickes said, “No delegate is required by party rule to vote for the candidate for which they’re pledged. Obviously circumstances can change and people’s minds can change about the viability of a candidate.”
The Clinton tactics are just becoming more and more… distasteful.
