Primary fairness

The more I learn about the Democrats and how they run their primary, the more I have to laugh. These people are ridiculous. The whole concept is insane. The Dem party members vote and think that they are picking the nominee, but really they are only giving that nominee part of the delegates available. After all of the states either caucus, primary or convention only a portion of the delegates are actually decided. The rest of the delegates (800 of them!) are just faithful party 'elites' who get to pick whoever they want, regardless of who people voted for. So very reasonably, someone could lose the primaries of 'the people' but win because they paid off the "superdelegates"... oh, did I say 'paid off'... yup, okay good, that's what I meant.

Check this out.

Oh yah, the Dems are definitely the party of the common man. Of course they also believe that the common man is too stupid to make decisions for himself, that's why the superdelegates need to decide. In fact, that's pretty much the way it is with everything. People can't and shouldn't take care of themselves, just give your money to the government and they'll work everything out. Classic.
