Elections

A Coup Is A Coup Is A Coup

Anyone with 3rd grade math skills can figure it out: Obama has won the nomination. But wait! Someone with kindergarten level bullshit skills can figure out how to steal that victory away from him: superdelegates with maybe Florida/Michigan thrown in (but only if the current "delegates" get seated. No new caucuses or primaries with fair play involved!).

After watching the last two presidential elections in our allegedly first-world nation result in coups, I am loathe to see that kind of skulduggery play out again, not to mention for the nomination of the allegedly more law-abiding, fair-playing party. Are we going to get railroaded once more by sleaze and muscle? Are we again going to ignore the voices of millions of Americans? Are we going to let a coup take place once more under color of the stars and stripes?

Hell no.
