TheGreenPapers.com will be tracking delegate counts, in both Major Parties, as both "Soft" (here assuming that relevant delegations will remain sanctioned into the respective National Conventions [that is: with no delegates to be seated at the Democratic National Convention and with but half the originally allocated delegates to be seated at the Republican National Convention]) and as "Alternative" (here assuming that the full delegation of an affected jurisdiction- as originally allocated before being sanctioned- is eventually to be seated [that is, at some point before the Conventions, sanctions will be lifted]) from now until each Major Party's respective National Convention convenes or until no delegation is any longer sanctioned, if this should occur prior to the Conventions.

I was going through the process to become a super delegate until I found out I couldn’t wear my cape and mask to the festivities and so I walked away disillusioned with the whole process.

Are you trying to say the Democrats are a bunch of UNAMERICAN COMMIE types?

It would be a much better system to use unpledged elected office-holders, who could pick which candidate to support at the time of the convention.

They could automatically include all Dem senators, congresscritters, governors, and mayors of cities.

Do the Rs have a similar type system? Probably not or she would have mentioned that, right?

I’m hiding indoors for the rest of the day. When I agree with Vanden Heuvel, a fear a bolt of lightning from the blue sky.

How stable (or fickle) are these super delegates? If they were to sense a ground-swell of support for ABC (Anybody But Clinton) would they keep their pledge — or would they turn on HRC?

Katrina vanden Heuval? LOL OK, yes, she is kind of hot, in a somewhat circumspect way, but she remains living proof that education does not necessarily produce an educated person. When I see her on television, I mute the sound. She is a semi-babe to look at, but not to listen to under any circumstances. LOL

Katrina is the poster child for brainless, arrogant, limousene liberals. She probably has a Park Avenue apartment with Che portraits on the walls and illegal servants waiting on her hand and foot. I remember when that old geezer “professor” she’s married to (Cohen?) used to appear on CBS News telling us how great and peaceful the USSR was.

The turnout broke records and young people

I hope they manage to get the young people fixed up.

Wait ... wait ... I think I’ve gone blind. I could have sworn that I’ve just seen a posting on Free Republic that says that Rev. Jesse Jackson is right about something!

Bump

I just caught a report on (of all shows) Anderson Cooper where someone was explaining how the super-delegates in the Dem party could give the candidacy to the candidate who lost the popular vote. (Sounds familiar, doesn’t it?) He said that it’s not likely, but possible.
