So, I realize that I'm likely the only one who'll be keeping up with this live-blogging thing, but I want to add a bit of background on my thoughts on caucuses.
They're bad. Stupid and bad. The only people who can participate are the ones who a) have the day off, b) are healthy and mobile enough to mill around shouting about politics, and c) have hours (I hope not too many! there's a KU game on later!) to spare on all of this.
Whatever that is, it doesn't sound like democracy to me.
Nonetheless, I'll let you know what it's like. Two hours to go!
Ah, my email signature--more prep to do, I guess. . . .
