Election Weirdness
Thursday, March 6, 2008
The Democratic nomination is looking like it will be made by the superdelegates at the convention. Blech! Let's hope not. Nothing would be worse than a bunch of career politicians deciding such a thing on their own.
Michigan and Florida are both omitted from the delegate count and may or may not have new primaries or caucuses.
And now they're saying how many Republicans and Independents are voting in the Democratic primaries, ever since the Republican nomination was pretty locked up. Some of these "fake Democrats"- and I say that because you have to declare yourself a Democrat when you vote in the primary- vote for their favorite, which may or may not be the true Democrats' favorite. Many Republicans are voting for Hillary, because she would be easier for McCain to beat.
It's all very strange. Hopefully the Democratic nomination will come about with the voters and candidates feeling the process was fair. It would be a shame to have a shadow hanging over what could be a very positive general election in November.
