The endless Democratic party
In Indiana, Barack Obama settles back into his change-politics strategy, while Hillary Clinton campaigns as if the race itself is everything.
By Walter Shapiro [2008-05-05]

  • the caucus vote, a travesty of democracy

    North Carolina, which holds its primary Tuesday, got an additional 24 delegates for moving its presidential nominating contest from April to May. Indiana, which also has its primary Tuesday, got six extra delegates for keeping its primary in May. North Carolina has 115 pledged delegates at stake, Indiana has 72.

    How exactly does waiting longer justify more votes? That doesn't exactly represent everyone equally or reflect the true will of the people.
