Humble Bill Nelson
When we last left Bill Nelson - he was threatening to take legal action against the DNC. Nelson is now doing was he always does best. He is backing away away from his previous tough rhetoric. Here is a potion of a letter he sent to the DNC.
As fellow Democrats, we remain optimistic and hope that conversations can in fact continue with you and other leaders in the Florida Democratic Party and that we can come to a solution that is faithful to the national party rules that were adopted last year."
Nelson tells the DNC that the Florida Democratic Party could hold a March convention and "could not be bound by state law to simply ratify the results of of the violating Jan. 29, 2008 state government primary..." Short answer: he is game to let the votes from the Florida Democratic primary not count.
Nelson has a history of grandstanding and not delivering. It amazes me he has lasted this long in politics. Nelson was able to get his name mentioned in the media for his "tough stance." Maybe that is what his whole dog and pony show was really about.

That's his main accomplishment as a Senator: Finding good people to do good (lacking in substance but plenty of grease) letters. I have many letters from Bill.
