The running disaster that is the 2008 primary calendar continues — the Michigan state House has now voted to move their primary up to January 15. That is a full three weeks ahead of the DNC's officially sanctioned date of February 5, and two weeks ahead of Florida's unauthorized date of January 29.

Considering the way the DNC has threatened to take away every last delegate from Florida's primary if they don't change the date, expect them to really lean on Michigan. However, the primary date has not passed in the legislature by veto-proof margins. As such, there is one avenue left in order to avoid a showdown: Expect the DNC to work hard pressuring Governor Jennifer Granholm (D) to veto the change, though her office has indicated that she supports it.
