Excerpt:
As the DNC Rules Committee is meeting today to decide on how to deal with Michigan and Florida, I thought I would remind people about a post I wrote last week.
If the DNC seats all of the Michigan and Florida delegates, expect there to be absolute chaos leading up to the next contested Presidential primary.
From Marc Ambinder…
Lots of folks on both sides of the Obama/Clinton debate predict total chaos in 2012 (if the Democrats lose the election) or 2016. Luckily, 2016 is a ways away, and Democrats are confident about their chances.
But think about it. States will have NO incentive to follow the rules, knowing that at least half their delegations will be seated. The candidates will treat the states like any other state; Remember that Florida, which had half its delegation penalized by the RNC, turned into the victory that essentially sealed the nomination for John McCain.
Nominee-presumptives Obama and Clinton have no incentive to change the calendar — he needs Iowa and she needs New Hampshire for the general election.

Excerpt:
Leonard Boswell is airing TV ads in the Des Moines market where he highlights his opposition to Bush on funding cuts to the college loan program and says he is a loyal Democrat.
That is commendable, but where was Boswell on the issues that really matter to Iowans?
Boswell voted against the majority of Democrats and supported Bush’s failed Iraq policy.
Boswell voted against the majority of Democrats to approve torture in the Military Commissions Act.
Boswell voted against the majority of Democrats to repeal the estate tax.
Boswell voted against the majority of Democrats to make it harder for people (and easier for corporations) to declare bankruptcy.
Boswell voted against the majority of Democrats and supported No Child Left Behind.
Boswell voted against the majority of Democrats and pushed to give Telecom companies immunity for illegal wiretapping Americans.
Boswell continues to support NAFTA-like free trade agreements.
Boswell voted against the majority of Democrats to give oil and gas companies $14 billion in tax breaks.
Sorry Rep. Boswell, but voting against the majority of Democrats in Congress on the issues that matter most to Iowans does not make you a loyal Democrat.
Support Ed Fallon in the 3rd District primary.
