And who was the genius that thought up proportional splitting of delegates and super duper delegates anyway?

I've heard Bob Beckel take reluctant, partial credit for it a number of times, saying it goes back to the 1984 election.

I think he really regrets his part in it.

I can’t recall but, wasn’t the whole point of those superdelegates to make sure Jessie Jackson did not win the nomination?
