When I caucused for Dukakis in Minnesota in whatever year that was, we discussed, loudly, passionately, and at great length, all the local issues as well - every pothole, every drug-dealing street corner, and those concerns went up the political line as well. It dragged on for hours, and I loved it. The only people who show up are the ones who really care about their precinct, so you can make grassroots connections and actually try to get something done. I wish Virginia would go back to the caucus system.
I agree.
right off the bat you caucused for Dukakis. that too me tells me there is a problem.
I dont need anybody in my face who dosen’t want to lose teeth.
I want a booth....
this system, gave us the Obamanation we are stuck with now.
As horrible as it sounds either Hillary or McCain would have been better.....sob sisters at caucuses were afraid to hear that they didn’t want to vote for the Brother and didnt want people to think they were howwible Wacists....
