the democratic party leaders have been fighting the candidates to ensure that they do not have a brokered convention. the republicans are trying the same shit.
I LIKE brokered conventions, where each state has it's main delegate stand up and read "The great and mighty state of Texas, with it's buxom women and it's well-hung men, with it's pecan trees and it's butthole surfer's rock n roll, has 23 delegates for Hillary Clinton and 87 delegates for Barack Obama"
and so on. I love these! this is the real politics that the parties try to avoid by having these long ridiculously expensive primary season. it gets longer every year which makes it easier and easier to go into the national convention knowing which person will get the nomination.
I wish edwards would stay in and make obama and hilalry work for it.
