Well, since the preference votes of the Democrats who bother to come out won't count in the "primary," it seems to me that many independent-minded registered Democrats in this state might have elephant-like memories and decide in the general election to go with whichever more moderate Republican likely ends up getting the nomination.
That was a long sentence. Anyway it seems a stupid thing for the DNC to do in a critical (possibly the most critical) swing state.
Another thing interesting is that Giuliani is counting on Florida to prop up his campaign. The ads are running hot and heavy, at least in the I-4 corridor. I understand that campaign budgets are limited, but I don't get the whole approach of campaigning in "only" some states, and in turn the voters usually end up voting among the candidates who have been campaigning in their state. The list of candidates is the same for everyone, is it not? It's all politricks, and it has nothing to do with which candidate would actually do the best job of running the country.
