Now, caucuses are undemocratic...and that's just fine because it gave Sanders an opening.

Yeah, stupid voters. Who needs 'em?

I find it interesting that they talk about democracy and "let the people decide" all day long and then latch on to the least-democratic part of the process because it benefits Bernie. No hypocrisy there.

1. "Yeah, stupid voters. Who needs 'em?"

And national polls predicting the general election should decide the nominee.

2. Haha, yes

And, before one of the candidates is vetted in any meaningful way.

3. People are so stupid in NE Indiana they elected someone in the primary based on their last name.

So now the Democratic Party is stuck with the guy for their candidate to congress.
When he is interviewed on tv he is shown drinking a beer, smoking and living in a 3rd rate motel. At least once the door to his room was open and he was watching an x-rated movie.

4. In Texas, the Travis County GOP ended up with a complete nutjob because he was listed first...

on the ballot and neither party did any ads. Voters apparently did no research.

It's pretty funny, in a twisted kind of way. Plus, it's the GOP. At least they actually *deserve* to end up with the screw-ups.

You probably saw it, but just in case:

5. That is interesting.

Here in Indiana, county officers for a political party are elected by precinct committee persons. Only the precinct committee persons are on the ballot.

6. A three-way race, no less.

Nice!
