Hi Glenn,

Re: I am beginning to wonder why the Democrats are even bothering to hold primaries.

Good observation.

When I first heard that fully 37% of the convention votes are held by Super Delagates I felt a bit of betrayal. As if the will of the people could easily be thwarted in back-room dealing. Of course the DLC types like Terry McAuliffe probably view this very positively. I can easily imagine a lot of these Super Delegates could fall in line with the Wesley Clark campaign. Especially with Wm. Clinton hinting broadly at support for Clark.

Ciao!
