Geraldine Ferraro reminds you that your vote doesn't really matter, Stupid
Ferraro (remember her form '84?) wrote this op-ed in the NYT stating that super-delegates are around to keep us lowly citizens from actually choosing who the Democratic nominee will be. As an Independent voter her editorial pisses me off; however, I can see why Democrats would want control over their nominee. Who cares what us wacky Indies think?!
On the other hand, I'd like to think no one actually believes a Republican will come out the winner in November, not after the past 7 years, so the Dems should lighten the fuck up and get Hillary and Obama to quit slinging mud at each other. It's getting ridiculous. Or, maybe all this super-delegate bullshit will piss off any would-be Dem supporters and McCain will win by default?
Democracy...heh!

Don't worry, Geraldine (a truly great name, by the way -- kudos to you and Flip Wilson for keeping it alive), when the Dems lose this election, they'll just blame it on Nader. Again.
No democracy to see here, people, move along...
