One nice thing about caucuses - the only thing

the media cannot have "exit polls" that they conduct during the day when primaries voters vote.

In caucuses, one has to be at a specific time at a specific place. Otherwise they cannot vote. I saw a clip of Trump saying something like: I don't care if you are sick and your doctor told you to stay home. Go out and vote. (In the Iowa caucus, that is..)

So that means you DUmmies can't lie about the exit polls.

2. And you would not be able to vote if you had to be on call at the hospital

or the police station or the fire station. Or if you had to be out of town.

This is the problem with caucuses - they disenfranchise many voters.

Bernie supporters don't work, so they should win easily tonight.

3. Caucases are undemocratic to the core.

Because only the left goes searching for that which is not there in a desperate attempt to be offended about something.

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

Many people do not see evil until the gas is flowing into the chamber. That is why they get on the trains in the first place.

I dunno. If caucuses favor unemployed people and students, then Bernie should win handily.

It appears to be a photo finish in Iowa for Bernie and the Burnouts, as he's nipping at the cankles of the Hildabeast.

Most of the Bernouts don't realize how tilted the field is, in favor of the Hildebeast.

The democrat nomination takes about 2500 delegates to win.

About 750 are "superdelegates" not bound by primary results.

Most strongly prefer the Hildebeast, almost none favor Bern.

If DUmmy joshcryer thinks the caucuses are undemocratic, wait until he finds out about the superdelegates.
