Is it elitist to want superdelegates to override the will of primary and caucus voters? |
|
To have a bunch of politicians and party hacks spit in the will of Democratic primary voters and caucus voters who cast their ballots in lawful primaries and caucuses because they claim to know what's best for the party? That strikes me as very elitist, and appalling that a candidate would base her whole campaign around this outcome.

Old Rovian trick, accuse your opponent of being something you know you can be accused of later on.
I swear half the Clinton supporters voted for Bush once or twice in the past, as they keep falling for the same old BS Rove used.

5. It's not just elitist ... |
|
... it's anti-democratic.
Every time I see one of those the SDs will step in and give Hillary the nomination posts, I can't help but wonder how infuriated these same people were when the Supreme Court stepped in and gave W the presidency.
Of course, they fail to see the similarities.
