Deserved retribution for making us all sad with your Newt-alternate-future story  Radbot posted:Should I bother caucusing for the first time in Colorado tonight? Just do it, and then post a Trip Report because Caucuses are Fun! EDIT: But seriously, if you have the opportunity to participate in democracy, you should, always.

It is your patriotic duty to show up, caucus, and drink as much as possible before, during, and after.  My 12th grade civics textbook was from the 80s and described the national party conventions as one big... party.

Let's dispel the notion that caucuses are fun, they aren't fun. If you find them fun, become a politician because your brain works differently than mine.

I'm putting way too much thought into this Sexycongress.net thing. "Hmm, he's younger and better looking, but the other guy looks nicer, and would probably appreciate me more..." "Lindsay Graham or generic Republican? Come come now, Lindsay knows his way around a man." "Rand Paul!? Oh man, you gonna get loved tenderly.  "I wondered why it was giving me mostly men, and then remembered that there are far less women in congress in the first place.

Matt Yglesias now attacking GOP establishment candidates for "responded to a terror arak by invading the wrong country and letting the perpetrator get away" I am entirely too sober for this poo poo (FYI neither Cruz not Rubio voted for Iraq - they weren't in. But Yglesias was a big cheerleader for it, and objected to Obama's plan to pursue bin Laden anywhere)

The fight tonight is probably going to be a fight for 2nd place. Trump will place first, and whomever places 2nd gets the party's full backing and resources while they try desperately to keep Trump from getting the nod. 3rd place is forced to suspend their campaign and fucks off to whine about it on cable TV. Edit: Norm Coleman is an opportunistic slimebag, but even democrats concede that he did a Great Good Thing by bringing NHL hockey back to Minnesota.

There's a very good chance he won't take a single state tonight, and I think the muttering about  ness will start to intensify dramatically after then.But actually ending? Rubio has a decent chance at Florida and Arizona, and he'll try to keep the Marcomentum rolling after that. FC is right that they'll almost certainly just keep pushing all the way to the end, given that Rubio will want to stay in contention for the possibility of getting chosen at a brokered convention.
