In the meeting, Hillary's rioters frequently disrupted the proceedings and in the end, her representative rejected the hard won compromise worked out by the Florida and Michigan Democratic Party's.

Now Hillary is using this as an excuse to continue on to the Convention even though she has no chance of winning enough delegate to become the nominee.

Some of the Hillary supporters outside the meeting told reporters they would leave the Democratic Party and vote for McCain if there was a compromise that didn't seat 100% of the delegates from Fla. & Mich..

The only thing I can think to say to anyone with that sort of 'my way or the hiway' attitude is; don't let the door hit you on the ass on the way out.
