....that, with all the complaining about "anti-Democratic" and "chaotic" Caucuses, the Sanders campaign is built around winning all the remaining ones?

(96,882 posts)Are you suggesting Sanders WON'T be targeting the Caucus States? He announced two Caucus States out of the five he thinks he can win on Super Tuesday.

(6,409 posts)Irony would be if Sanders were focused on creating more anti-democratic activity, or more chaos, to help him win. Irony consists in criticizing something and then using that thing to your own advantage. There is no irony in criticizing what is wrong with the caucuses, then working to win the next caucus, UNLESS Sanders uses the same tactics to which he objects. So we will see if there is any irony in the future.
