Obama-rama

After the weekend sweep that somehow included a Grammy Award for Best Performance in Kicking Hillary's Ass Coast-to-Coast, Barack Obama leads in national poll for the first time.

A bigger point to ponder - if Obama doesn't take it away in the Potomac Primary tonight, and there's a brokered deal at the convention - it's entirely possible that you're going to see an Al Gore/Bush type situation.

Obama could have the popular, primary vote -- but the Hill will take the "Super Delegates." (or somesuch excuse) and she'll be on the ticket.

Wouldn't that be interesting? Wouldn't that also disenfranchise everyone who - I don't know - loves Democracy?

Death to the Infidel Electorate!

Smash the Electoral College!

Seriously.

We either need to repeal this board of electors sillyness or tell the voting populace to suck it. A voting booth divided against itself cannot . stand
