The Michigan Democratic Party has decided to hold Presidential caucuses, which will result in a full slate of convention delegates being selected and seated. "We are currently in negotiations over the seating of a Michigan delegation to the National Convention. Any resolution must be agreeable to all four interested parties: the MDP, the DNC, and both the Clinton and Obama campaigns because we all want a united Democratic Party in Michigan to ensure a victory for the Democratic nominee this fall," said State Democratic Chair Mark Brewer. While the specific details -- like the date -- have yet to be worked out, The New Republic reports Michigan Dems will be "announcing a new caucus in the next few days." Governor Jennifer Granholm (D) has endorsed the caucus re-vote. In Florida, by contrast, leaders of the both the Clinton and Obama camps agree a re-vote is not going to happen. "A do-over is unworkable, too expensive, unfair and not logistically possible in a state our size this late in the game," said Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) to the South Florida Sun-Sentinel.

According to ABC News, Paul will announce his exit from White House race in a video to be posted on his campaign site. "The message of freedom is popular. And I will continue to trumpet it in Congress and across America as I fight on behalf of the conservative, common sense values which made our country so great. In conclusion, I would like to offer my thanks and gratitude to all of the wonderful people who supported me in this campaign. I look forward to representing all of the good people of the 14th District of Texas in Congress in the years to come," explained Paul. He won 70% in his congressional primary this week.
