Reply #88: Who said life was fair?

[matt819]

Hey, I don't really disagree. It may not be fair. But the candidates knew what the rules were, and the voters knew their votes wouldn't count. They may have wanted them to count, and maybe in an ideal world they would have counted. And in later elections perhaps we'll have a different system. But, and I know I'm repeating myself, everyone knew going in that these primaries would effectively not count. And at least one candidate chose not to dedicate resources to those primaries, and I think Obama wasn't even on the ballot in one of those states. So you can't go back now and say, hey, Clinton should get those delegates.
