3. To think I thought Dems were smarter than Republicans...
For the first lady, I'm glad she opened her eyes and voted on the damn issues and character. As for the Asian guy, What more adversity does Obama need to go through before he becomes a stronger candidate in your eyes?

All this just makes my head explode =/

I admire Californians. They NEVER vote Republican. The last time was like 30 years ago.

7. I honestly had a feeling this would happen
And I think in other early voting states the sentiments are similar. If more people took the time to pay more attention, I think Hillary wouldn't have had any chance whatsoever. Instead, Edwards, Kucinich and Obama would quite possibly be the ones still battling for nomination.

8. Well, our primary was too early.
I'm sure I'm not the only one who mailed in an early ballot for John Edwards. Kucinich had a lot of support here also. But Obama is gonna bury McCain in CA in November.:hi:

10. The superdelegates will be influenced by this.
This may be an example of the reasoning behind the superdelegates - that things can change after a state's primary and those changes need to be taken into account.

14. not really
Delegates, super delegates, the electoral college, are all buffers established by the ruling elite to keep democracy from occurring. Representative democracy is an oxymoron. If voters were uninformed, then they should have the power to overturn their votes and exercise their opinion more than just once every four years when deemed appropriate.

12. yes
early in the primaries they voted for clinton because they didn't know anything about obama and were loyal to the clintons.
