Electoral Excitement!
Washington State has a caucus this Saturday which is how all of the Democratic (excepting super-delegates) and a portion of the Republican delegates to the presidential primary will be selected. We also have a primary in two weeks, but it only selects another portion of the Republican delegates and none of the Democrats. In conversations last weekend, I heard several people write off the caucuses as meaningless since they fell after Super Tuesday. But Tuesday has come and gone and NOW WE MATTER! We matter so much, that Senators Clinton, McCain, and Obama ARE ALL IN TOWN! I must say, I'm a total sucker for the attention. I'm going to miss Clinton & McCain, but am headed to the Obama rally tomorrow.
This democracy stuff rocks!
