You know what? We are adults, here. And listen to us. Like kids in a school yard. What chance have our real kids when us adults are behaving so badly? We got some real problems out there. Ones that McCain would perpetuate. Others he would just out and out ignore. And even more that he would call something other than what they are. Like it or not, we have our candidate. If we think caucuses are unfair and not a true reflection, then let us move to making all states one voice, one vote. But let us also all acknowledge that even the one voice, one vote is flawed. Remember hanging chads? Missing ballots? Rigged machines that would only register Republican choices? Votes uncounted because of busloads of opposing rioters? And a right-wing supreme court handing the election over to a man who has brought this country to its knees? We're barely a democracy as it is. And here we haggle to split it even further. I'm appalled. Yet I'm only one voice, one vote -- and a caucus one at that!

Another hypocrite

Geez, to read your post, you would be fine with everything as long as they found the other way.
So, as long as the lying/cheating is in Dems favor, you see no problem with it?
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL, hypocrite.
As to barely a Democracy, you are correct, and a vote for Democrats (modern day Communist party) pushes us farther away from it.
You think free health care is a democratic thing?
Anything business/industry controlled or ran by the government pushes us closer to communism and farther from democracy.
Which party do you support? Oh, the one pushing for more communism, not less.

On another note, have any of you EVER bothered to read and understand our constitution?
Voters claim to be unhappy with Bush (27% approval) but the President is only a figurehead, the true power is in Congress, where Dems have been in control for past 4 yrs. What is their approval rating? 10%, rofl, so, somehow, the party with the lower approival rating is going to improve the country? Enjoy the next 4 yrs, because after Obama increases everyones taxes to give more free-loaders a bunch a free crap, the working man will be voting the Commies back out of office.
