An Idea for the RBC

Instead of playing banana republic games and disenfranchising two entire states, how about just stripping them of their super delegates.

The voters in both states had no control over when the primary was (and particularly in Florida where the Republicans in state government set the primary date). They should not be punished for the actions of the state parties. If you really feel the need to flex your muscles and prove your strength by punishing someone, punish the super Ds. They're political bigwigs with power. Not the average everyday voter who just wants their voice heard.

Just a thought. Though if you were really smart, you'd stop playing rule geeks long enough to realize you're behavior is going to cost us the election. But I don't hold much hope in that.
