I beginning to think this Caucus stuff is pure nonsense.

"I'm beginning to think this Caucus stuff is pure nonsense."

I've ALWAYS thought it's pure nonsense.

All night long the nitwork pundits were falling all over themselves repeating over and over in various forms...."what you are seeing tonight is democracy in action".

When the enemedia slobbers like that I know the opposite is true, no matter the subject.

Was it democracy in action?

As a matter of democracy, if you're elderly, disabled, handicapped, whatever and can't come out to stand for hours in the icy cold and then sit on the hardwood floor inside...can you vote by absentee ballot in the "democratic" caucus system? Or is this segment of the population shut out? I didn't see any wheel chairs all night long. Does anyone know if there's absentee voting?

Then, when crowds inside are herded to stand under their respective candidates' banners, what happened to the American "secret ballot" concept? This stupidity is off-putting and can cause countless potential voters to stay home.

I'm not too optimistic I'll get an answer as most folks don't understand the whole caucus system to begin with.
