Primary Shit Show

Just end this silliness. There is no good reason to continue with caucuses.

Be THE example. Paper ballots. Early voting.

Tonight, every Candidate Kid got a trophy - a victory speech.

Pul LEEEEZE.

We DESERVE to be laughed at - by Putin and Trump and the GOP and right wing knuckleheads - for this one. The real hell of it is this is our fault. This whole stupid fucking caucus mechanism, with rules no one understands, was put in place by *US* because one someone complained last time that their corn flakes got pissed in.

I have ZERO INTEREST in any argument your candidate wants to make. I have GREAT INTEREST in how we fix this.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:

I'm getting tired of hearing this idiotic point about how """everyone got a participation trophy and got to give a victory speech""" -- that is not what happened and each of the major candidates were going to give speeches regardless of the results, which is usually the case after votes like these.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
