Such idealism as comes from D voters. Instead of "prominent members of the
Democratic Party", you might want to read "insiders, many of whom had their FBI
files in the basement of the White House". It kind of puts a different spin on
it, doesn't it. Besides the inclusion of superdelegates was a move to give the
insiders an edge on the common voters. The point is not democracy, but
control.
Despite the detestability I find in Mrs C, I hope that if she wins, she does
not choose to do it by manipulating superdelegates over poll results as it can
only be bad for the country, maybe even making the Watts riots look like childs
play. I surely hope these superdelegates think more of their country than
their ability to swing the vote a certain way, While it may insure an R
victory, (and with McC, who cares) it may do more damage than the terrorists
have done.
