Should I go to the caucuses? |
|
I would appreciate responses a bit more thought-out than just screams of "Why are you supporting the Republican traitors!!!!" if possible. :hi:
Kucinich has dropped from the race. He is the only candidate I was willing to actively support in the primaries (caucuses, actually; the Washington primary is a futile excercise that costs lots of money and selects zero Democratic delegates.) I will likely vote for whoever gets the nod, but I see all of the remaining candidates as equally dismal and, frankly, I don't give a rat't tail who is nominated.
Is there any point in enduring the overly drawn-out and incredibly boring process that is a Democratic caucus? Since I no longer have a voice in the race for President, is it worth the effort of trying to speak?

I think you can remain uncommitted. Even if not, there's additions to the state party platform to vote on. Given Kucinich's level of support here, I'd be surprised if there aren't planks written and promoted by folks in his camp.

3. Participate, and make your voice heard. |

If at all necessary, voice yourself as "uncommitted." It's better than not showing up or, worse yet, crossing the aisle.
